It's Just a Tank

True... but also I may have been referencing a specific person........

Ethan knows who I'm talking about. Just took over the stocking forum absolutely determined to put all the craziest fish in his first like 70 gallon tank. Wasn't it like a ribbon eel, a boxfish, a hippo tang, and a school of pyramid butterflies, and many more?? And when I said it was abad idea he would just make his own thread and keep asking till someone said yes. Made me quit the forum for a couple days.
I am very glad I don't see those pists. But this next one is close to that, or worse. Depending on how you view tang stocking.
 
Unfortunately that's the world we live in. When someone wants a fish you aren't allowed to tell them no. If you tell them no, you better have good justification. If you have good justification just remember that this one guy on TikTok did exactly what George wants to do and you can't tell him it won't work because TikTok is 100% accurate 100% of the time! Plus I read about it once on a reddit forum when someone dropped that comment in passing about how he has 7 tangs and 8 butterflies in a 20 gallon mixed reef and none of them were currently eating a coral or fighting.

He hasn’t been on here for months lol. I’m glad he was told so many no‘s left.


Also unfortunately the guy I was talking about is someone we both now, thought he was a chill guy, nvm

If you want, (some entertainment lol) go check out the thread lol
 
Hold on, let me break out my 57.7" monitor to see how big these fish REALLY get...

Yep! When that gem tang came up locally everyone’s like you can’t have that with a yellow they’ll kill each other! Uuuuummm watch me! Haha! They could care less about each other I keep everyone well fed and happy! The only terror is the sailfin and blue eye at night time if someone comes near his cave! 2 more gems just came up for sale from the same guy at a good price and they’re about 6” I’ve been biting my tongue :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

Who needs a super aggressive gem tang when you can get a super sensitive wrasse that looks almost identical? IMG_3102.jpeg
Honestly have been considering a Desjardini for a while but I kinda like the silly anti-tang soapbox I stand on. :face-with-tears-of-joy:

I could not see that posible with powder blues or clowns.

Zebrasoma, are far more chill than most of the acanthus family. Lots of food helps
My clown tang gets nippy at feeding times. Tells everyone to go away. They don't really listen..

I could fit a whole salmon, Maybe even a tuna in my freezer and it wouldn't eat a thing either.

Sir! That Salmon is too large for that fridge! You will either need to upgrade or eat it! Terrible home for that salmon you think you’ve got! ;)
 
Oh my god ughhhhhhhh


cant believe what the guy posted at the end

I need to stop thinking of this guy :angry-face:

Sorry for ranting here :downcast-face-with-sweat:
Just don't be so sensitive. Start answering questions with answers like "I wouldn't do that but if you want, go ahead. And, send pics to B49 so he can start a new thread about it."?
