Looking for something unusual

[Apotack]

Just upgraded my son from a 40 to a 125. The plan is to tie the plumbing of both together so they share a sump making it one system. We are looking for some ideas on unusal/weird creatures for the 40. Let us know what you think

Thanks!

Reef tank or fowlr?

 

[Apotack]

125 is a reef

Sorry, I couldn't stop myself...

I have a couple of 40b plumbed together in a fish room. Gives me a chance to keep things that I can't or wont put in my DT. I'm thinking of an painted angler in one of mine.

125 is a reef

What do you have in the 40 right now?

 

[Apotack]

What do you have in the 40 right now?

sand and rock

Oh ok. For the 40 you could get something like seahorses, if you’re really lookin for something unique

we were also thinking possibly pipe fish

 

[NotFishyFishGuy]

From what I’ve read, they’re a lot of work

Mantis shrimp, eel, lionfish come to mind.

I have one of these for a few years. Kind of unusual and can do one handed push ups.

Yes mine does this whenever it finds food.

Peacock mantis shrimp are very fun. They will interact with you and will like to check out things like colored dice and toys and stuff.

I like macroalgae display tanks and mangroves. Then all kinds of un reef safe crustaceans.

 

[NotFishyFishGuy]

Dwarf fuzzy lion

 

[Apotack]
