Who Rules the Tank?

Reefer Matt · Jul 4, 2023

People usually get into reefing because they saw something that inspired them. Whether it was a fish, coral, invert, or all of it. I have considered myself solely a "Team Coral" guy until I recently got a very cool fish. Now I want to learn more about fish care and husbandry. What do you think makes a saltwater aquarium special?

I have favorites in each category, so I try to divide my devotion equally.

For me fish have always ruled. It's always been about keeping my little swimmers fat and healthy

No question, it's this guy.

Great question! With each tank there may be a different focus. Fish are definitely what got me into the hobby many, many years ago and have continued to keep my interest.

No murder sprees?

Hands down, SPS rule the tank. The main reason for any decision in my tank has the corals in mind 1st and the support team (fish) 2nd.

No, he does chase the Blonde Naso and Blue Hippo around every now and then but no fighting. I do feed nori four to five times a day so they all are pretty fat and happy.
