fish for 15g and 40g

[Darbex]

Is that a 100g cube? I am sure there will be tang police that will tell you yes, but I dont think so. Probably cant keep a full grown

[ometh]

Yea I've heard so many opinions that it's not to ristricting because they're not losing space because of the depth of the tank and the length.

[CRUSHER]

In small tanks, it is best to stick with small creatures ... won't have to worry about anything growing too big and then having to get rid of it when it does.

[ometh]

To the op, if you want something similar to a tang get a dwarf angel. Pretty much the closet thing you'll get to a tang without having to worry about it growing huge

yeah been looking at some dwarf angel too. how many of those would be good for the 40g. if anything i will take out the chromis.

[Darbex]

1 but they are highly likely to nip corals

You can have dwarf angels but you won't have your reef.

[ometh]

I find those notions to be used loosely. I've had a few dwarfs before I tore down my 75 reef and not one nipped at my lps. You just have to keep an eye on them and keep them well fed. Not saying they won't decide to turn around and take a bite out of one, one day but this is what I experienced.

[johnnytrinh]

just got an bicolor angel. lets see how this one do. its a little over an inch

[ometh]

Just keep the lil guys fed well with good quality frozen foods.

What kind of frozen fOod did u use. I have NLS and some veggie pellets

[ometh]

Mysis, brine, squid, clam, ocean nutrition carnivores diet. You wanna give them variety.

[Darbex]

I use rods.

[Darbex]

The notion isn't loose it's a fact that they are likely to nip. Will it always happen no but the probability is high which is why they are listed as a caution reef safe everywhere. It doesn't matter how well fed they are they just like the taste. I have had it happen to me. Just like tangs as I have documented can't be trusted. Neither will nip the stronger sp LPS like euphyllias but the weaker ones like trachyphyllias and acans are delights to them.

[ometh]

I was pointing out the notion of making it sound like its a 100% thing that's going to happen. That isn't the case always so that's why I said it was used loosely to often like that shying the newer aquarist from certain fish. I'm not throwing a big fit about this matter it's just I thought I'd give my thoughts on what I've seen all to often.
