I have what I always thought was a Kenya tree, and it's a pretty color of purple. I highly doubt it's any of those hard-to-keep species, as I only have a 29-gallon with PC lighting, no sump, no fuge,...

crushed coral for free in northeast PA

I just switched my 29-gallon over to live sand, and I have about 30 pounds of crushed coral. It fills a 12QT bucket, to give you an idea of how much there is.

That's very true. Sounds like you guys made a good decision--I only wish I had an in-wall tank!

Thanks for clearing this up for me, I really appreciate it. :)

Hmm, so I guess it's more expensive than regular glass?

I personally don't like acrylic aquariums...they seem distorted to me, not as clear as glass.

What is a starphire aquarium? Is it like a special design, or something? Just wondering.

Thanks!!

I agree w/ kenny, a small goby. I love clown gobies, and they stay very small. Neon gobies stay small as well--IMO, you could keep 2 neons with the false perc in your nano. Just keep all your levels...

IMO, it wouldn't overcrowd your tank and I don't think it would make your bioload too high, either.

Your aquascaping is fantastic. If you didn't live so far away, I'd seriously pay you to come...

I'd just be sure to get rid of them if they begin to get aggressive or outgrow the tank. Be wary of the flame angel, but don't avoid it altogether. IMO, just start with cheaper corals like zoos and...

fish compatibility

Would a royal dottyback get along with a firmandi pseudochromis [aka an orchid dottyback]? What about either of those and a purple firefish? I'm worried about the issue of similarly shaped bodies.
