65g hex stocking suggestions w/ GSP?

Post by billysgirl4e »

I currently have a 2-3" GSP named Ryuu. He is moving into his very own 65g hex.
What would all of you put with him? He's going to be in my husband's and my office/guest bedroom. Oriental themed.
Thanks,
J Bishop

another gsp is about it, you could go marine and try maybe a clown evantually or some corals but there really arnt many options for gsp tank mates

Nick said because it's a hex, there would probably be territorial issues with another puffer. So, I'll probably wait till I go marine with it. When I do, what are some tank mates that would be good to have and how many?

that all depends on your puffer, but mostly anything that is tough enough to hold its own but then again not aggresive enough to attack the puffer, some people have had succes with clowns, but i think you could try maybe firefish, damsels (might be too aggresive) hmm idk not too sure about others that would be good,its a tough mix i would definitly suggest a clown, either a false perc, marron, tomato or somthing of the likes
