Beautiful fish! All of them!

You should use shore shrimp instead of ghost shrimp. They look exactly the same but they are marine. You can purchase them here :

They are florida based but will ship to Canada. When I used to have cuttlefish and octopus they supplied me.

awesome thanks for the link, these were all I could immediately get my hands on so I grabbed these- When I run out I will give these a try if I still need to feed live.

Could you feed salt water mollies? Or still considered not healthy as original freshwater?

I definitely recommend these fish for anyone wanting something different and unique in their tanks. The Frogfish is getting his own tank, and the Red, Brown and Yellow Rhinopias will be staying together in an upgraded tank once on frozen.Hope you like the pictures:)

Im assuming these are not reef safe....

They will eat what they can fit in their mouths, but they don't harm coral- (alot of people have different opinions on the term "reef safe"- to me it means coral safe.)

Beautiful species tank bro, kinda cool to see a tank so clean and dedicated to scorpion species and frog fish

J.J 01-15-2014 01:55 PM

(Girl not bro lol)

Thank you:) They were my goal for a long time- but finding someone willing to get them/could get them was difficult. It took me 9 months maybe 10 to get them, so when I was told there were three available I grabbed them.

I did get another a Rhinopias Eschmeyeri that was beautiful but unfortunately didn't ship well and died:( I was crushed but the vendor is replacing him and has ordered me a Purple Rhinopias Frondosa so hopefully I can get that one with no weather delays.

Thank you for the kind comment- Hopefully I am able to locate lots of macro algae to fill in this tank :D

Sorry I ASSumed you were a bro when you were the opposite. Not a lot of women in this hobby. I've only met a handful but its a hobby for anyone young old guy girl black white and purple.

Either way awesome tank, why not add some easier corals like Zoas and mushrooms? Do you not like keeping coral? I am sure with your husbandry you'd be able to keep corals with your eyes closed....
