anyways, i was looking at this tank http/www.rocketaquatics.co.uk/marine-aqu...lack-p-895.html . its a red sea `plug and play` 140 ltr/34 gall tank.

what i would like to no is....

2 ... what fish could i keep in it ? i was just looking at a pair of clowns,but was wandering if its big enough for anything else?
3 ... could corals be kept in there ? if so which sort would you suggest for a newb.
4 .. also what would the cuc consist of ?

thanks for your time.

Hi,
1... I considered the Red Sea Max when I was first starting out, only reason I declined from the purchace was (a) it didnt fit into the home decor and (b) its acrylic
2...Look at my thread, my tanks a lot smaller volume wise than that. So you'd be able to squeeze a lot more in.
3...Certainly Corals are an option, go for softies as first corals.
4...CUC would consist of Turbo snails, Nassarius snails, Cerith snails, Blue and Red legged hermits. Later on some Shrimp

Just a word to the wise though watch when your installing the Liverock in Acrylic tanks be careful not to scratch the material.
