CA2OR Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 That is a question I was asked recently. If I could only keep one coral or fish what one would it be.....(scratch). Thought it would be interesting to see what you guys thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgf86123 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 honestly, i would love to have a big enough tank, 12-15000g, to keep a blacktip reef shark, that would be extremely awesome, especially if i was able to keep him long term, read 10-15 years, that i could then consider it a success.

stylaster Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 hmmm tough one, now if it was just one species i would keep my montis. If it was just one coral in particular it would be my Oregon Mummy Eye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePremiumAquarium Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Does live rock count or can I have that and 1 coral? If I could only have one thing in the tank it would be a huge piece of very live rock. If I could have live rock and 1 coral I would probably pick a beautiful A. Millipora. Polyp movement, growth pattern, and color are my reasons. Second on my list would be an encrusting monti or scrolling monti of some variety though there really are so many beauties it would be hard to just pick one. Euphylias are also pretty neat but again just one variety would be too difficult! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reefboy Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 if I could only keep one I would leave the hobby and just dive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltfinsax Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Thats hard, but it would have to be something that changes at times for me. So I guess it would be a HUGE bubble coral. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJenchild Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Zooanthids! You said one coral....not one color morph! So I'd still have variety! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJenchild Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 And one fish would have to be my starry blenny. I love that bugger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finch6013 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I have a blue tenius that has the best color of any coral I have ever seen. That would be my coral since It has long polyps that move, great color, fast growth and its growth patter has to be my favorite. For my one fish it would be a yellow eyed Kole Tang.

pledosophy Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 For coral, I'd probably keep my tyree long polyp green leathers. For fish, seahorses. One or the other, seahorses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 if I could only keep one I would leave the hobby and just dive. (clap)....Nice...(laugh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
