180-Gallon Aggressive Aquarium—”Mixed”
From Microcosm Aquarium Explorer
[edit] A Model Marine Aquarium
This aggressive community tank is comprised of some truly spectacular fishes.
It is imperative that the tank contains plenty of larger hiding holes as well as ample swimming space.
If you have good lighting over the tank and plenty of water movement, you could include a captive-bred Bubble-Tip Anemone (Entacmaea quadricolor) for the clownfish.
Try to acquire a smaller Coral Hind, also known as a Miniata Grouper. (If the hind can ingest any of its fish tankmates, it will.)
A Queen Angel of around 3 to 5 inches will acclimate more readily than a larger adult.
