    Your brother calls you up and says. "Hey man, come get my 125gal tank, i dont want it anymore, Tank, all equipment, free."

    and you already have a 16gal, 55gal, and 115gal

    Sigh...

    well i guess i better make room for it somewhere and figure out what kind of tank i would like it to be.....cause im addicted, which means its getting setup one way or another. =)

    hehe. yep. poor poor me. =)

    It was a Cichlid tank, so im going to have to take those back to the store to see what kind of credit they will give me. then i can figure out what i want to do with it. I've already got 2 reefs and a FOWLR. need something different or unusual. something people dont expect....Suggestions?

    NOW we're talkin. i've gotta do some research on those things. are there some diminsion requirements on the tank like for sharks or rays? if i remember its a 5' x 18" x 24" so not good for sharks or rays. little small in gallons for them aswell.

    I've read up on the a little, but everyone just says Expert only, or very difficult to keep. but nothing says "why" they are tough to keep.

    I would setup a tank for tube anemones, i always thought they are pretty and seem to do better in a tank dedicated to them

    Octopus are hard to keep as they are very smart and can squish down to an elastic band,
    and they like to crawl out of their tank.
    Would be very cool though.
    What about jelly fish?

    their hard to keep cause they are expert excape artists and strong and smart as a cat.also if they give birth in captivity they usually die and then so does the offspring.so i hear.i figure you may want to check into that.
