i got a tank the family called the carnivorous tank
4 kinds of dogfish,(my favorite yon leopard ang itsura) average size 4 inch
clown trigger 5 inch
picasso trigger 3 inch plus
stripped trigger 4 inches
2 panther 5 inches
2 groupers 6 inches
red snapper 4 inches
over six months na at least sila and they grew almost double on average since i got them except the clown which i already got it fairly big and it doesnt grow as fast
i feed them guppies twice day,a bags worth total daily,as well as omega garlic pellets, assorted small fish bought from the market pero guppies is their primary food as in 85%
this tank is barely 50 gallons with a 5 gallon balde as sump,beleive it or not ,i only use live rocks for maintaining this tank,i even wonder where all the fish waste go to,as it should be a whole lot
my daughter calls them monster fish tank
my only maintenance is water change 20% a week,its a BBT na occupied by live rocks only and the fish siguro the rocks occupies 25% space volume of the setup,the water is always clear,parang the dirt consolidates as detrius sa floor which once a month use a hose to suck them out
also i add a pitcher of mineral water almost everyday
i got this problem,walang namamatay for so long and they grew and grew,and they are now too crowded
so the system is 1 tank,1 balde,overhead pump with box where i use
to maintain filter but not anymore and live rocks and 1 air pump airstone pala
clown trigger ang salbahe,nangangagat
ah..yes,the lighting...i might get shot for this,its a daylight 24 inch T5 lamang,which i turn off at night para matulog sila,yon isda yata tumitibay pati immune system kung tulog sa gabi
