Re: So what's next?

I think the only bad one are the green ones so if you it is green I would remove it ASAP.

What happened to hotimportknight?

Also make sure you research any fish before you buy it. Your tank is a 33 so maybe about 4 fish depending on what kind.

Re: So what's next?

Even a very small fish like a damsel needs lots of room were some other fish need less. Reef is right that type of damsel is known to be extreamly aggressive and it gets alot worse as they mature.

Re: So what's next?

he bought one and had a nuclear meltdown via anxiety attack, you should check his ongoing question thread and read up on it. the way he talks things through to himself via posts cracks me up!

Re: So what's next?

I should have some base rock in the mail Thursday or Friday so I will be rearranging the tank. I will try to catch them and take them back.

What type a fish should I start with?

Also I am not sure what type of algae I am growing or the color I might be still to new to know what to look for there! I know at my LFS they have purple algae.

Re: So what's next?

This thread is starting to confuse me.What the hell did you say Red?

Robi,
Cone shape,you mentioned nassarius earlier right.If you have any green flim or brown algae then maybe 5 Astreas or Trochus snails.Maybe a couple of cerith snails and one Queen conch will help with that.

I would only go 4-6 smallish fish total but the decision is ultimately up to you.What kinds peak your interest?I like dartfishes,basslets,gobies,blennies and clowns for your tank size.
