OverStocked ?!?!

[_FishFreak_724]

Hello,
I was wondering if i could add a large clown trigger [4-6in], to my 120 Gal aggressive fish only system ... But, Am i overstocked at this point ??? I am looking into about a 240 -375 upgrade within the next 8 months...

[ I dont need to hear "aggerssive" issues with my current stock, they have all been together for over 5 months, and no aggression what so ever ]

Current Stock :

Stars and Stripes Puffer - 6 1/2 in
Striped Dogface Puffer - 4 in
Undulate Trigger - 3 1/2 in
Picasso Trigger - 2 1/2 in
Silver Scat - 5 1/2 in
Mono - 5 1/2 in
Snow Flake Eels [X2] - 15 in
Tomato Clown - 3in
Javanese Damsel - 3in
Large Striped Damsel - 2in
Large Garibaldi - 4 1/2 in
Asst Smaller Damsels [X5] - All Under 1in.

Like To Add :

Large Clown Trigger ~ 4-6 in
Sm. Harlequain Tusk ~ 3 in [???]


I under stand with the Clown Trigger, I may loose my small damsels [bait] ...

Thanks ...

Yep at this point you are more than well stocked for a 120, upgrade and then buy the new fish then.

I agree with RayAllen. Upgrade before you add more fish.

The undulate will turn at some point and it won't be pretty, I'd wait for an upgrade and leave the Undy in the 120 alone.

Once these guys hit 5" and up they really show their true colors, good luck.

Thanks Everyone ...
I Guess Ill have to wait to get them =[

About My Undulate :
I got her at about 1in for about 15$ about 8 months ago, she was the custest thing ever then ... But, now as she grows i do get worried about aggression, but when i get this upgrade i either have the choice to put her in the 240-375, or get rid of her ... There is no way i can set up another tank for her as i have no room. The 240-375 will be going where the 120 was. And i have no room for another tank just for my undy, because we already have a fishtank in every room of the house, except the bathroom .. [ i kno , i am obsessed, no need to point that out =)]

My "current tanks" doesnt state this, cause it hasnt been updated for a while, but here are my current tanks :

120 Gal Sw Aggressive FO - Living Room
5 Gal - Divided Betta System - Kitchen
50 Gal Goldfish System - Spare Bedroom
75 Gal Planted Discus System - Master Bedroom
12 Gal Nano Reef [under construction] - Office

And I am suprised all of them fit in my house, and i am suprised my parent are going to spend money, to let me get a 240-375 upgrade !!! I was shocked when they said "okay" ...

So To Sum Up,

I hope my undulate triggger will stay calm and stay a model citizen in my system ... Cause i dont want to have to get rid of her, she is my favorite fish i own.

You should consider trader her in, you'll be very happy with your decision in the long run and so would her "would be" tank mates. They'll still be alive :D

Why would it have to be a 'seperate' system? A 240-375gal should be large enough to have part of a big custom sump, like in 100gal fuge, or a seperate tank underneath that could house the Undy.

AquaKnight, I like how you think! I was going to suggest, dig pond outside for the goldfish, and turn the 50 into the undy tank (at least for a while).

Maximum size for undulates is about a foot long, not sure how long that takes...
