TMC Next Wave 85 - Stocking list

[Tom735]

Hi guys! I currently have a fluval evo 52L still in the box which I’m going to return and get a tmc next wave 85

Looking to stock with a pair of clowns and a valentine puffer guessing the 52L is way too small for these, would the 85L be more suitable?

Thanks!!

The 52L is definitely too small for them. The 85L should be fine—there’s a chance the Puffer could eventually grow out of it, depending on the specific one you get—but it should be okay!

Valentini Puffers are definitely reef safe with caution. Are you planning on getting corals?

Was planning on fish only, saying that I’ve seen quite a few people with them with corals and CUC so not sure lol

It’s your call. Keeping fish well fed is sometimes a good deterrent from fish which may see coral or inverts as part of the menu.
