Hey all,
Just setting up my 7gal minibow reef, my first venture back into reefkeeping since having to sell off my 65gal reef back in college. The tank is still cycling and i'm waiting to get my lights (hopefully today!) and won't be ready for a couple of weeks.
Anyway, was at this store in baltimore called aquarium center and they had one of these leaf scorpionfish, it was about 2" long. Besides the growth (i understand they get to 4", but fairly slow growers) which i will be able to accomodate in the future, as i will be setting up a 30gal cube also, but has anyone tried to keep more of a small predator in a nano before? If regular water changes are performed (there is no skimmer on the tank) will that keep up with the messy meaty diet they require? Anyone had any luck with this species (i believe its Taenianotus triacanthus)?
Any advice is welcome,
Thanks,
Barry
