    My current tank is a 55g with 45lbs of live rock. 3 inch of mixed sand and crushed coral with 24 hermit crabs, 1 misc snail 1 cleaner shrimp a fuzzy dwarf lionfish and what the fish store called a wrangly wrasse. I just added the wrasse today and im having trouble figuring out how much, how often and what to feed the tank. Ive been weaning the lionfish onto frozen krill which Ive been adding a cube to the tank every other day (it always seems to get caught in the powerhead and fills the tank with krill, im not sure if this is bad or not). Am I doing this right? If not how should I go about feeding these creatures?
