Thx, yeah it's a young tank, I see some of these other amazing reef tanks and I want to go hide they're so amazing, that's why I call mine a noob...
The only fish I have had die on me was a Copperband Butterfly due to starvation also. My tank is only about 6 months old but I've never had issues...
Moved some things around a bit, battling red slime but it's still my fav thing:
it is def a matter of personal preference, 60lbs of sand in a 55g looks like this, in case you needed some visual reference, I think it comes up 2"...
Usually 1b per gallon is the rule I use. For my 55g I got 60lbs of arag sand and it was the perfect amount for me. I have about a 3-4" sandbed....
how about a heater? I recommend a stealth, unless the tank comes pre-packaged with one. I would also recommend a maxi-jet 1200 to help pre-mix...
Damsels do have a pretty bad rap, but they can def get aggresive as they get older. I think it depends a lot on the temperment of the individual...

Hope you find the cause. Thanks for the params, do you know the extended params like Calcium, Magnesium, Alkalinity, Phosphate? It's always good...
+1 on the lots of light for a crocea clam. Do you know what your stock lighting is?
What are your water params?
Awesome, can't wait to get mine, I'm going to have like a frickin tsunami tornado flow in my tank with 4 Koralia's! BTW, your avatar tatted, it's...
Sounds good, yeah I mentioned I just ordered 2 Evo's, they look like they already have the snail guard on them right?
great mod tatted, I may just have to do that! Do you think the force of the water has any effect on the hold of the glue? How long have you had the...
Beautiful clam & tank, love your rockscape, thanks for sharing!
Cool I think you'll be fine & post pics when you get one! I still think you should get a little Flame Hawk too one day, soooooo coooool!
very good point Will, I didn't even think about that. My snails are always all over my PH also. that sucks bje, I was just going to ask if anyone...
