POLL: what should I put in my 120?

[aquarookie]

Hi all,
I love to find out people's opinions on tanks. I have a 120 (72" by 18" footprint) acrylic tank, a LOT of base rock & LR, a couple of MH lights a stand and a good size sump (or a 90 gallon tank to be used as a giant fuge). Since I love most corals (and I am now starting to like SPS), but I don't like "mutt" tanks (randomly mixed), I wanted to see what people think I should put in this tank. Sooo....

i was gonna pick buy an airplane .

i like lps with a few sps .

 

[aquarookie]

Well Gaby, both of those choices sound reasonable... As much as it costs to buy and maintain reef tanks, the cost of an airplane is pretty comparable! But I think I will stick with reef tanks for now

BTW, pardon my ignorance, but who (or what) is the gipper?

 

[burning2nd]

Airplane will do more for you,

IF your a biz kinnda man... you can buy the plane flip some passengers make some money then buy the tank...

then you could sell the plane and buy a bigger tank..



Kinda like grand theft auto missions

 

[loohunter]

i am an lps fan they sway in the water current and seem to grow rather fast. maybe a few anenomes as well.

 

[class clown]

SPS and clams is my vote good luck with the airplane.

I went with a species tank when I had my corals with everything found locally in the Bahamas around the same types of reefs etc. I didn't have to worry about any issues with corals not getting along and looked natural. With that being said, I have no idea what you should go with

 

[brady816]

you know what i will say!!!!!! lionfish, leaf fish, any kind of killer would be good

 

[ronj]

a tang would be nice!!!!!!

 

[Haole]

How about lps and clams?
Sheesh... That almost sounds like a dinner plate. :lol:

 

[trido]

I voted SPS and clams. Of course, you've seen my 120. Lately, my new softy tank is looking good though

 

[Dr. Dee]

SPS and clams baby

 

[aquarookie]

Well, it sounds like the SPS is winning so far. But NOBODY voted for an anemone tank. What's with you guys! :lol: Oh, and if I ever buy an airplane, the first ride is free for you reefers (one at a time though, since the cheapest planes are two-seaters)

 

[jsmkmavity]

i would vote for anemone tank if it was a 75 or less

 

[jsmkmavity]

if you buy a plane with floats you can collect your own specimens!

 

[szidls]

Shilo has some guppys for you. They will be far less expensive than any of the other options.:lol:
Oh I vote Sps and Clams.......Feed the addiction and swap frags.

A snake!

 

[aquarookie]

i would vote for anemone tank if it was a 75 or less

Why 75 or less? Or are you saying $75 or less? :lol: Oh, if I buy a floatplane it will only be after I buy a Lake Washington waterfront property (give me a few years to make a couple million bucks, then I will) :lol:

 

[Elmo18]

I voted anemone tank.

Would look nice as a carpet anemone tank. They like shallow water...lots of current...lots of lights....

However, the track record isn't so great....so maybe rethink that....

I know if I had a large tank, I would do something similar.

Best,
Ilham
