Help me decide what to put in my new tank!

[silverz]

I picked up a reef ready Oceanic 72 gallon bow front really cheap today. I already have a 55 gallon freshwater and a 58 gallon reef tank. I was thinking either aggressive saltwater fish only, brackish, or a chiclid tank. Help me decide. I am open too all suggestions.


Everyones opinion is apreciated.

i'd say agressive predator tank, with like morays and lionfish

[silverz]

That's what I'm leaning towards. Not 100% sure yet.

No one else has any ideas? Surely everyone has a dream tank!

Yea we all got dreams, but not all of us have tanks to match the size lol. If your tank was larger, like 180 or so, I'd say you should get a small shark, either cat shark or a wobegong.

Maybe you could put 1 super-exotic thing in your 72, like a small stingray of some sort. Or you can always follow my original idea of a predator tank with stuff like morays, lions, or groupers.

I have several dreams, but they won't fit in a 72. Of the choices you presented, I think a nice rockpile full of Tanganyikans would be my choice.

Good point! I hadn't thought of that. I'm 90% sure I'm goin with a predator tank. Thanks for all your suggestions.

no prob man

might be gettin a 72 or 90 and i'd probably make a predator tank too.. keep us posted on what u get

[silverz]

Will do. It might be a little while though. I'm getting ready to stock my newly cycled 58 gallon reef, so money will be tight for the aquarium fund.
