Just be careful with what you pick Jeannie ;) Not to be a downer, but pretty much every fish suggested so far will very quickly outgrow a 55, and it...
I would be afraid of burning the macro's. Not sure if that's possible, but for what its worth most macro algae's do well in ~3 watts per gallon
I am making mine for my 200. It's the first one I have built, so I will let you know how it comes out ;) Its really not that hard to do though. You...
I keep torch and xenia in the same tank without problems. They do have chemicals. But that's not what happened. Its sweeper tentacles got it. You...
Yep. Hammer and a chisel
they will take a lot of light, but it's not really needed. The flow is a lot more important
+1. 6 weeks is way too early with all that livestock. And adding LR will restart the cycle. You need to stop with the water changes and let the tank...

+1. I even like to brush mine off with a paintbrush under the current of a powerhead.
Yeah, you could definitely tone down the fuge lighting. I believe most macro's grow great at 2-3 watts per gallon, but I may stand corrected at that....
I have the BH-100F, but that is an HOB model, as I dont run a sump on my 40. But they have some great in-sump models as well that I have checked out,...
The puppy was at least 6 feet away when it relieved itself. To establish dominance, I contemplated going over the same spot myself.
Not that I have noticed. I have a lot of rock, and run mh's, and my tank never gets above 79. But I always kept my house cool. The pumps might not be...
