 | tang for a 10 |
djtj  Fish Master Posts: 1764 Kudos: 885 Votes: 49 Registered: 20-Feb-2003   | What's a free-swimming tang. that can go well in a 10 gallon tank with a colony of multies and maybe a clown pleco? |

There are some Tangnyikan barbs, and so on, but 10 gallons isn't much space, and the multis will want all of it, especially once they start spawning. And you won't need anything else - they're about the most fun fish on the planet next to SAEs. -Molly Visit shelldwellers.com! |

| djtj Fish Master Posts: 1764 Kudos: 885 Votes: 49 Registered: 20-Feb-2003 | Ok then forget it. Could I have a pair of brevis with a colony of multis if I had a rock formation in the middle? |

| littlemousling Conchiform Posts: 5230 Registered: 23-Aug-2003 | In a 10? No way. The only time mixing shellies works is in large tanks - most people say 4' or larger (I know I've tried it in less with terrible results) with not just a big rockpile in the middle but a rockdweller in the rocks to keep the shellies from venturing past. What is it about the multis that isn't enough for you? -Molly Visit shelldwellers.com! |

I just like having variety in my tank. Anyway, I don't think I'll do multis. Even 3 would be extremely expensive at $18 a fish. I'll get a pair of brevis and use the 10 for frogs. |
