Looking for some interesting fish for a FO tank. The tank is a 75 gallon hexagon with a center overflow box, 2" bed of LS and a wet/dry; very basic.

The tank is being setup in a retail store in a kids area. A custom, round stand (more like a counter) and canopy has been made to display the tank and to an extent, keep the little kids at a distance from the tank.

I'm thinking of a cowfish / boxfish, small volitans, porcupine puffer, a frogfish and perhaps a moray eel.

I'm open to suggestions, experience and feedback on what I've listed.

I'm also having a fake / faux rock insert made to cover the center overflow box, not planning on any LR.

Thanks,

Marty

hm, it sounds like a fun tank... but i think youve covered all the bases on available wierd fish.

ooooooooo what about a juve pinecone fish? those are pretty exotic..... if youve got the $. but the tank will probably only be viewed by day huh? guess that would be a bit of a waste....

The pinecone / pinneapple fish are kinda cool. I'm trying to keep fish that are of same temperment and kinda mellow.

Anyone had a cowfish and experienced a release of toxins?
