going salt
I am going to convert my brackish tank to salt! this should be done around Christmas time. I want recommendations on what to put in it. I was thinking along the lines of a common clown, a royal gramma, my existing naked goby, and the inverts would include a tiger cowrie, a brittle star and I think that's it. it is a thirty gallon. What do you think?
The woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang the best. Use the talents you possess.

Re: going salt
Ocellatus clownfish are known for having the potential to not be as aggresive as other clowns, but it's still hit or miss.
I love royal grammas, they are really beautiful! I love the opposite color contrast.

Re: going salt
i can't afford to feed a puffer right now. I have decided to go with a naked goby, 2 chalk bass, a royal gramma, and a brittle star and a tiger cowrie. will this work?

Re: going salt
From what I just read the cowrie might eat the star
