    nitrate solution????

    gurgling, flushing noise from overflow

    Putting dark sheet on back of Aquarium

    I used to do this, but don't any more. In an established tank you should get Coralline growth on the glass anyway. As for stressing the fish, I would...

    Can i still add any fish?

    It sounds like you've got a lot of load for a 55 gallon tank. But then I've always been one for very light fish loads in reef tanks. I had less fish...

    What Kind Of Tank Is Best?

    If you're talking plexiglass vs. glass then it depends on the use. For reef I go glass all the way. It's way too easy to scratch plexi with all the...
