Are tose the scarlet leg type? I bought some "red leg" at Fish Den and the legs are pale lol kinda want to boil them for red legs

 

[chrislorentz]

Thats cause you got them from the fish den !

Rmourgey out something like that has $1 snails, so does Jon. Your best bet without going online.
What other fish do you want in there? You should start with the least aggressive then slowly add more aggressive livestock

LOL well I didn't have this group when I was a noob stocking my tank lol. I even bought a PETCO fish once >.

 

[chrislorentz]

LOL NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.......hehehehehe now you have us for any help you need

 

[Cake_Boss]

Nothing wrong with petco fish, just get them before the employees acclimate them. Also they will special order any ORA corals and are really cheap compared to LFS

I think you are going to find the copperband will munch some of your corals that resemble aiptasia.

 

[Wicked Color]

copperband almost wiped out my acan collection.

 

[120greefman]

+1 on the copperband, they are not reef friendly to zoas or acans. this comes from trying one out.

 

[Royal Gramma keeper]

alright i may pass on a copperbad, dose anyone know about a longnose?

 

[Cake_Boss]

No idea, but pacific island has 3 heniocho-something (moorish idol looking butterflies) for $60 for the trio,

The bannerfish (what rockys_pride said) are reef-safeish. There is only one species the of the banner fish that is pretty good about not eating corals, but they are very hard to distinguish between the other banner fish species. But they are schooling fish and should be kept in a group.

And the pyramid butterflies are suppose to be the most reef safe, but i think they are kinda ugly and its no sure thing.

I would pass on any of the butterflies.
