I tried brackish a few years ago. I had a 55 long with a couple of archers, a couple of four-eyes and a Mono sebae. I couldnt make it work, every thing eventualy died...never did figure out what went wrong. The four-eyes were very cool, as were the archers. Good luck and I would like to see what your keeping when you get time.

I need to get used to the camera...

The Bumble Bees are funny when you come over to the tank they swarm up to the front... funny little fish.

Sony A100.... it was cheap... after buying a new TV and surround system my camera budget was cut down....

No worries.... Still a good camera by the time the 40ds are readily available I should have funds again.... Saving and waiting are not my strengths….

We did need a new TV…. The old one had no remote, buttons on the TV no longer worked…. It was a pitiful excuse for a TV….

i had a brackish tank for a long time. Figure 8 puffer ( a few GSP for a while), and some monos that got huge that I sold back to Jeremy when he had the Fishman in Denton. You should get knight gobies, those guys are cool.

anyone with brackish tanks need to look at getting Freshwater Flounder they are so neat and there is a shop in garland that has them and if they are out and you want them they will get them

IM pretty sure black mollies can live in brackish water. I think they can live in a full blown salt tank if acclimated properly. There are also some catfish that can do this.

I've got a 46 gallon bow front set up with 2 green spotted puffers and guppies. Though it's getting pretty close to a salt water tank before long. the Larger GSP is about 4" and the smaller is 3".
