dthurs Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 4340 Kudos: 4170 Votes: 529 Registered: 18-Feb-2003	I think that might work. I would say your on the high side though. The Auriga Butterfly is a larger fish, 5" or so. But should be OK in your tank. Keep in mind this is a shy fish and will need a lot of hiding places, so you may not see much of it. Dan Dan

dthurs Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 4340 Kudos: 4170 Votes: 529 Registered: 18-Feb-2003	Are you talking about a schooling banner fish? Like this. http://www.peteducation.com/article.cfm?cls=16&cat=1871&articleid=1870 It will be OK, but it's a large fish and will cut down on the number of fish you can have. As for the dwarf lion, again, yes. But, fish like this are a large bio load on a tank and will cut down on the number of fish you can have. Dan Dan

dthurs Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 4340 Kudos: 4170 Votes: 529 Registered: 18-Feb-2003	Many of the Pseudochromis have very nice colors, are easy to care for, and stay rather small. Dan Dan

fishguy Enthusiast Posts: 152 Kudos: 189 Votes: 8 Registered: 01-May-2004	any other suggestions besides the gramma?

dthurs Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 4340 Kudos: 4170 Votes: 529 Registered: 18-Feb-2003	A flame angel should be OK, they stay some what small and are not overly aggressive. Puffers are a bit more high maintance. Soem need to have there beaks trimmed, others get very large. Dan Dan

dthurs Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 4340 Kudos: 4170 Votes: 529 Registered: 18-Feb-2003	Looking at your list, it looks like the hawkfish is the most aggressive, and should be added last. Dan Dan

dthurs Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 4340 Kudos: 4170 Votes: 529 Registered: 18-Feb-2003	Look at a royal gramma. They stay small, have very nice color, and are fairly active. Dan Dan

dthurs Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 4340 Kudos: 4170 Votes: 529 Registered: 18-Feb-2003	I would put that at fully stocked, if not over a little. Also, I hope you plan to add those slowly over many months. Dan Dan
