New 90 Gallon Reef setup. - Going to need alot of advice.
- Thread starter Freddybnj_2004
- Start date
The first fish that comes to mind are Tangs....they are algae pigs. However, I would never recommend a Tang for a 55 gallon....too small......Although maybe you could squeeze in a Kole....but I'll let the Tang Police comment on that.
I upgraded to a 90...does that make a difference or is it still too small for a tang
Helped you with an edit...if you don't like LMK I will turn back the title.
For a 90 some smaller tangs are doable. Kole, Tomini, Yellow, Mimic and maybe Scopas, Convict.
I would stick with one of the Bristletooth species for that size tank.

Okay... so I did more research and I'm a little skittish about adding the Yellow Tang... so I showed my wife pics of the 4 choices for tangs... she decided on the KOLE... I like it... beautiful fish... I'll be ordering maybe this weekend... Thanks all...
You are in a good spot for local fish stores. AO is my favorite for fish. I have always found his fish to do better than anyone. http://www.aquatic-obsessions.com/ if you have not been there. Watching Will the fish whisper catch fish is amazing which I honestly think is important for somewhat fragile fish like tangs. South of you is http://aquariumcarecenter.com/ which is also has good prices on fish. Both are great supporters of the club. Your choice is an excellent one for your tank.
Awesome... I actually stopped by Aquarium care center on Monday but they were closed... I'll hit there this saturday after my soccer game... (They don't mind smelly customers, do they?) Lol
The never turned me away.
I would call both stores and see if they have the fish in stock you can also ask AO how long he has had it which is nice . Like I said I usually buy all my fish from AO, though I have a couple from ACC they both have the Quick Stop which if you are not doing a full QT at least use that. If you go to ACC get one of the older guys they are much more knowledgeable then the one younger kid.

What is Quick stop
http://blog.aquanerd.com/2012/09/blue-life-usa-safety-stop.html Sorry Safety Stop...sure won't hurt to mention club he gives you a discount as a member too.
Wow that's cool... def will use... thanks...
Emp.. I've used trop alot... but if AO and acc support our club I am willing to switch.
Thanksquick stop is a convenience store / gas station
I personally like AO and ACC, they get to know you. Trop I think is a sponsor still but not sure.
