no a thing.
I just know at least a couple of those fish would love a bigger system.
I had a yellow tang in my 72 (got him in a tank tear down I bought) and I sold him to someone with a bigger system as he was obviously stressed in my little tank.

Not to say they were/are unhappy in yours, but it's a no brainer that the tang and dragon goby in particular will be happy to have some more room.

I just saw that you were selling a 30 gallon system with these fish and saw you were looking for a new system so 2+2 =?

how active is that dragon goby?
what tank did you have him in?
aggressive?


super cool looking fish, but he looks mean.

the 5.5?

In all honesty, you could set one up like mine for under 100$

Mine cost me less than 50$, but I had lr and sand already....

i saw the dragon goby... it's wicked! pretty active... and wasn't aggresive towards any of the other tank mates!

try a pearly jawfish. i had one with loads of inverts and other fish and was totally dosile. sooo much fun to watch. i called mine dozer, because he was always working.

I have tried 2 yellow headed jawfish, none of them lasted over 4 hours.


Will never buy a jawfish again.
also, my tank is open top, so risky to have one of these documented carpet surfers in there anyways...

what I'd really love os a blue spot, but considering my luck with the chapefr variety, I cant bring myself to try my luck with one.

Dragon goby could be a good alternative though.

Nope, very simple set up.
Just a regular 5.5, with an 18w Coralife 50/50 cf light (cost me 30$) and a rio skilter which cost me (20$)...
I made a drip, as evap was pretty bad, by just putting a 2L coke bottle with a couple of tubes drilled into the lid (one for siphon and one with a ball valve for the dripping) in a cupboard above/behind it to keep salinity and water level in check.

added a dsb and some chaeto and a tiny powerhead I had from an old freshwater filter and now I have a nice little system for about 50 bucks, not including the tank (which might run you about 20-30$).
