This is my 55 Gallon Reef tank. It is my wife and I first reef tank. I've done the FW :o planted tanks with Discus and Angels and a lot of other FW tanks. We've been very successful with FW. Now it is time to try SW!:D We are new to this side of the hobby and we love it.

Nice start. It looks like you have alot of fish in there. Just keep an eye on that. Tangs will probably outgrow that tank, 3's usually a crowd for clowns expecially if they're all of similar size, and you want to keep an eye on the effects of the bioload. Every case is different. Looking good, keep us up to date. :)

Are those blue yellow tail damsels? I'm thinking about adding one to my tank. How do you like them? Good personality? Fighters?

I have 3 Blue Damsels, 3 clowns, 2 Green Chromis, and 1 Blue Tang. That is all the fish that I am getting. The Blue Tang is my sand shark with the wife:cool: Gives me an excuse later to upgrade to a 125 or 200+. I will keep a look out for the bioload. Thank you for looking barometer.

lol, now you've got it going on, I like the way you think.

You probably know as much as I do, just things to watch out for. Definitely looks nice, keep it up :)

They are some neat fish. They hide in the caves of my LR. They are little punks though. Don't let the size fool you, they are bullies. They fight with each other and the clowns. I put them and the 2 Green Chromis in when I started the tank. Now my wife won't let me get rid of them :eek:

PK_SD is growing me a neon leather and some red zoos. I have some small red monti plugs that I am going to let mature a little more and then I want to try and trade it for some zoos(I like ones that glow under blue light).
