The adults just green though…
The juvenile I do love and if it stayed with that pattern I’d take one of them any day over a Tricolour but the adult pattern is what stops me. I remember those guys being incredibly rare and not really heard of but now they seem to be rather commonly spoken about and even more so common in captivity.

Well I guess I’ll listen. The king is magnificent though…..

I think now it’s either a flame dwarf or a majestic
I mean, you could always go for the king and then rehome when the time comes

You could hang the light

Dragon wrasse might be too boisterous for all your other wrasse down the line
Passer Angelfish, best to Pass on that one (get it ;)) I think it would get too big too quickly and be very mean. They aren’t called King Angelfish for no reason.
Zebra’s don’t get too large and I think are the safest Moray to keep with all your fish as they don’t eat aquarium fish, at least that’s what I think lol. As long as there is a lot of good crannies and one big cave for it?

Coral and Inverts:

EVERYTHING ;) except clove polyps:dizzy-face:
Any more boisterous than my coris or the tusk. My plan is to get all three as juves and to be prepared for rehoming.

An adult zebra could swallow my other 3 eels at the same time but yes they are the most peaceful eel there is. As for caves you notice those openings?FBB6FEC4-134B-49E2-9998-8E45D530B0FF.jpeg

Yea Dragons are nasty definitely more than the Tusk but if your coris transitions and grows then I think there will be a some disputes with the Dragon, Red Coris’ can be pretty mean when grown.

Yes definitely a lot of spaces for the Zebra

+1 on the Zebra.

A Passers would be wonderful. However, they grow quickly and can (will) get very aggressive. Rehoming would probably prove to be very difficult and possibly impossible. Could be a reason for another larger tank though!

They are beautiful but I do not really want another yellow angelfish. Also that’s like a 6000$ fish. As it’s not 24x better than a regal I’m not getting one.

So if you don’t like the clove polyps for the not FOWLR what coral would you put in a coral muncher tank that would compliment my GSP?

Oh yes forgot to mention the price tag :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: Unless you find them on Reef Pro or the old Among The Reef for like $30000 :rolleyes:

Maybe a large Toadstool would be nice? Maybe you should try out some SPS like a Milka Stylo?

Toadstool would work! But I do not want to have to add elements or do many water changes or upgrade my lights so SPS and LPS are off the table.

Maybe I should add the rock with my toadstool and pandora zoas? The pandoras may be toast but as they’re already over growing :thinking-face: View attachment 3126597
Zoas are almost always going to be food to most reef safe with caution coral eaters. Leathers I’ve had success with for the most part (I have one that’s just been wilting for months now).
