Jon Fishman Posted January 10, 2020 Author Share Posted January 10, 2020 I guess I didn’t keep him happy enough, but I lost a fish, and he was a big part of my bio-load..... So I’m looking to add, and I may be willing to go with many more fish for the sake of coral growth...... so.... Cow, Box, Gem, and a clown in my tank currently. I have a top now (thanks to rampant evaporation). What would you add? Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttley000 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 A group of anthias would be in my plans if I had your current situation. Maybe a wrasse or two also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 I don’t know much about cow fish except they are cool looking. But the rest of your list would be good. Maybe a pair or trip of clowns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muttley000 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Nice! Did the Dottybacks go at it? You have plenty of room for them each to take an end but could imagine a scuffle if they both picked the same spot! Need pics of these guys!

I am house shopping and after doing an 80 gallon water change, the thought of moving the tank is overwhelming. Anyone in NE Ohio want a free 8x2 wooden aquarium stand for free? Just message, and be able to pick up from my garage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Fishman Posted May 4, 2021 Author Share Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) Well, no pics yet, but another small update...... Buying a 1/4 HP Chiller to just “help” keep my water temp in check apparently after 18 months or so, just isn’t going to work out. I don’t want to crank the A/C for one nice day, then the temp drops to 50 degrees outside today! My ambient temp in my house hit 76 at the hottest point over the last few days (sitting at 68 now) and my tank hit almost 86!!!!! Alarms going off etc, and I was scrambling. Well, I immediately ordered a SECOND Chiller, so I will be running both of them, and actually moving the other so re-plumbing. This time it was a 1/2 HP chiller...... so it should handle the job by itself, but I will still run both. I really need a new house with a basement for my tank!
