Ahh, well that would make more sense. Not really what I am looking for though. Anyone know where I can get a large bendable tube to use as a siphon for this thick crushed coral?

I had a firefish at one point, but he would just hide in the rock work and come out only during feeding. Looking for something that will just swim around all day. Not a huge fan of wrasses either.
