Hey!
Pretty sure someone did a post like this,
but uh,
I know you've always wanted a certain fish, coral or invertebrate for your tank!
So, what is it? I would say Purple Tang, but I have a big enough tank... so Clown Triggerfish it is!
Do you have it? If not, what's held you back? Curios to know!
@vetteguy53081 I know you've had a lot of various and unique species!
@littlefoxx Ima go with an eel... or lionfish!
@beehave6301 curios about what you'd pick!
@AydenLincoln Is it Hewbie?
@DanyL What about you?
@BristleWormHater Ah, if you hate Bristleworms, then... how about Fireworms ((That's gotta be right.))?

A Unicorn Tang. I saw a guy's video once-- it was 1,200 gallons and he felt it was not big enough for the adult Unicorn Tang he had in it.
 
Blue Face and Regal Angel. They aren’t reef safe.
 
Ive wanted a triggerfish for over 25 years. Started reef keeping on and off about 20 years ago and wanted specifically a blue jaw trigger. Got it about a month ago. Never had a large enough tank previously.

Potter's Angel, but I sadly can not have one right now due to the cost of one and the size of my tank.
