In Reply to: tank size posted by Aaron on October 31, 2000 at 10:53:51:

oops, I forgot to add- I also would like 1 or 2 Common Clownfish (Amphprion ocellaris)

: hello everyone, I'm not planning on doing this in the near future, but when I move next year I am going to set up a saltwater aquarium. I have moderate experience with Freshwater.

: So I can keep my eye out for bargains this year, I was wondering what tank size I am going to need. I have looked at the fish and this is the selection I would like to have.

: 1 Royal Gramma (Gramma loreto)
: 3 Midas Blenny (Ecsenius midas)
: 1 Cleaner Wrasse (Labroides Dimidiatus)
: 4 Regal Tang (Paracanthurus hepatus)
: 2 Domino (Dascyllus trimaculatus) or 2 Humbug Damselfish (Dascyllus aruanus)
: 6 Blue Chromis (Chromis Cyanea)
: and eventually either 1 powder Blue Surgeon (Acanthurus leucosternon) or 1 Foxface (Siganus vulpinus)

: Naturally I will have the tank set-up first, and then gradually add the fish. My questions are:
: A: can anyone forsee any compatibility problems? I chose all fairly docile fish.
: B: what size tank will this require?
: C: Are any of these fish particularily difficult? I realize that all marine fish will be more difficult than my freshwater friends, but are any of the ones I mentioned on the hard end of the salt-water spectrum?

: Thanks,
: Aaron
