Hi Everyone!
I had a couple fresh water tanks growing up and a 150 gallon saltwater tank in college.
I had a couple triggers, a Lion, a snowflake eel and a couple other assorted fish, sand and liverock
Im not going to order a tank today but I am starting the research to figure things out so I can order and get a tank started soon and once all levels are established ordering some fish I really want.
3 things that interest me for a tank but I know odds are aren't for me but Id still rather ask the experts
1). Octopus - don't worry I know all the issues with getting them, short life span etc so I will not be getting one but they are amazing creatures
2). Stingray - Id love one but don't know how good of a fit it would be for me and what I want to include in a tank
3). Marble/Coral Catshark. Looks like a great option but Id like to learn more.
OK I want something simple, perhaps just some sand and some live rock. Id love to have an eel for sure! My snowflake did well beyond that I am pretty open!
I do not want to get into corals as I know lots of the fish I like will eat them.
My budget is pretty open (around 5K ideally for complete tank not including fish, rock, sand etc but can spend more if its worth it)
I am going to be putting it in our finished basement (so I don't have to. worry about weight)
I could easily fit a 250 gallon tank. Ive been looking at the RedSea and Waterbox as I kinda want something complete out of the box but am open to suggestions and ideas.
Thank you very much!
