With my tank transfer coming up and the loss of some fish I contemplate being rid of my yellow assessor.
With that said I entertain the idea of a specimin tank. I like the idea of a ribbon eel but don't want to cover tank. Also thought of a frog fish

So what you house if you set up a specimin tank?

Mantis tank or frog fish tank.

I thought mantis don't like bright light. But I am interested in frog fish

I have a ribbon Eel in a full reef. The top is a must tho. I would get an octopus if I made a species tank.

I love frog fish, sadly they do not do well in captivity. I do not know anyone who has had long term success with them. I have tried a few, none made it over 6 months. When my last one went downhill I asked on here if anyone has had success keeping them and sadly everyone who responded said no :sad:

I would get an Wonderpus Octopus ( Wunderpus photogenicus ), ReefWholeSale as some in stock & I have been itching to get one.

Yeah that's cool. Just don't want to cover tank as I build it to be a look down tank

I'm not sure if I should sell the assessor and get another group of anthias or keep it and get some chromis lol

Or specimin tank.

I know that there are more colourful and flashier critters out there but I love the schooling fish even in the limited space of a tank it is still entertaining to see them turn in unison

If I could I would do an octopus or moon jelly tank.
