What Fish Work With What Aquariums

It's the one thing I try to help clients with very early on. Getting the right fish for the right tank. Freshwater is easier, this is mostly about the Salt-Water environment.

New clients are always told to check with me before they put any fish in their tank...well, any fish I haven't purchased for them.

Not all fish are reef sale. Many will eat your corals, your shrimp, and cause some type of havoc in your beautiful tank.  Just because the fish store says it's okay to put in your tank...you should always ask the person that you trust and that has many years of trial and error experience. 

This link is to an article that talks a bit about fish and reef aquariums.

Reef Safe Saltwater Fish

Keep in mind that not even when historically the fish has been reef safe that fish have personalities, like we do, and some just don't work with what you've got.

You have to build your aquarium society with care...and knowledge.
