Fish by size page has had a bit of a work over to make navigation easier.

There's been 95 views of this thread to date, are people finding it useful?

Regards

...all it has done for me so far is stop me getting any fish! :wall:

Oh to be ignorant and blissful again! :nut:

(Great effort btw)

thats the idea, more informed choices.

BTW, would you go the G. watanbei again?

They were great fish but I'd recommend more swimming area than my system had.

The one that made it into the display just looked uncoordinated with the amount of flow and relatively small swimming space (they are afterall meant to be more open water fish) - I imagine a comparable sized Centropyge Angel would have been much more at home swimming through the rockwork.

I don't think I'll be replacing them.

I have been browsing this thread and have found it to be very informative in helping me with choosing what fish I will be getting when I am ready as I don't want the fish to out grow my tank or not be suited to the size that they will be in

This is the best fish list I've seen around Ross, great job :thumbsup:

Makes fish selection a lot easier!

Only one suggestion: Blue Tang (31cm) is in Medium Fish & should be in Big or Large instead?

I sort of put that particular specimen everywhere given its profile.
