Hi guys,

I have 2 successful SPS and mixed reef tank but i'm lookint at setting up a FOWLR. Ill i want is 2 small puffers and maybe a small clown trigger or 2.

What is the minimum size tank for these fish? Is it best to get a long thin tank or short deep tank. i have 1 valentini puffing my other tank and she love swimming back and forth length ways.

Also how many hours of lights would a FO tank need?

thanks

Im not 100% sure on the tank size for the clown trigger but I would say a 6 foot tank. The lighting can be the same as your reefs. 10-12 hours is fine or less if you like.
