If you had an extra 33 gallon...

What would you put in it?

We want salt... but no reef (have 2), no seahorses (have them), no lion fish (getting them), and are restricted to that tank size.

Hmmm.... we just cant think of anything neat to put in there!

Suggestions?

A saltwater planted tank?, with different decorative algaes. Mantis tank? Frag tank? lobster tank? coldwater tank? sponge tank?.....

A while ago, there was a thread about a display 'fuge -- all algae and pods. I love the look of a refugium, so I might do that if I were looking for something different. A species tank like an anenome tank can also look amazing -- there was an RC TOTM that was all anenomes, and it looked wild.

On the other hand, I might also use it as a frag grow-out tank, or a QT.

A Bangaii cardinal breeding tank, with just a pair or more of Bangaii & a long spined urchin. Then if they breed, you can see the fry swim into hide among the urchin spines. That'd be cool I think.

bamboo shark, better yet hatch it from an egg. of course you would have to start saving for your tank size upgrades.
seahorses with a slight lean in the regugium are, would be awesome for that size but requires knowledge and research for proper husbandtry

[smellsfishy]

oops forgot to mention get 2 seahorses and breed them

Sounds like you've got a fair amount of tropical stuff now. What about a Pacific Northwest tank? You could collect your own specimens from tide pools locally or on the Island. There are some very cool tank examples at the Vanc. Aquarium. You might need a small chiller though....
