The 90 is kind of a tweener size. Too small for big fish and too large for little fish or seahorses.
I like your idea Laurie but I really like the corner tank and don't want to give it up. I'll keep tossing ideas around and maybe even ask the wife's opinion............WOW, that will be a first!

Maybe have her look down the 'idea pipe' and see what comes (out) of it?

The "idea pipe" is not a good idea.

Well just think of how many little gobies/blennys etc you could put in a 90g I'm sure you would see some of them some of the time

I always thought it would be cool to have a bunch of fairy wrasses and dwarf angels together.

DAZED & CONFUSED

My poor Fire Clowns are screwed up. Their Nem moved again and left their clutch of eggs uncovered. The parents take turns, going from guarding the eggs and then to the Nem and back and forth all day long.

In this pic you can see the red egg cluster under the rock overhang on the left side. The Nem has moved about 10" to the right.

You can see the eggs better in this photo. Mama clown is to the right of the eggs.

nems is evil!........ and fire clowns?....poor?......I dont know how your fire clowns are, but the ones we had at the shop a while back were the meanest SOBs on the face of the earth.....they would come from across the tank to take a chunk out of you whenever you were in the tank.......Kevin put one in the clam system at the old shop and all the customers got a kick out of watching the clown attack us every time we were in the tank..........I wouldnt call them poor.....except maybe they're poor in the IQ department

Oh they're evil all right! Taken some of my hide more than once. Even so it is still
sad to see them trying to guard both the eggs and the nem.
