    Hey everyone, I am new here, and to saltwater. Had a freshwater cichlid tank for 7 years and made the switch in October! So my tank is around 3-4 months old.

    55 gallons. Eheim 2217 canister filter with GAC, purigen, chemipure elite. Two powerheads creating lots of flow. about 35 pounds of LR. Heater. JNS VS-1 HOB skimmer.

    Lights I have seven LED reefbars, and a CurrentUSA Orbit Marine LED. Up until today I had a T5 that I replaced with the LED. Lights on from 8 am to 5 pm. Live sand.

    Inhabitants:
    Black and white clown, Ocellaris clown, Six line Wrasse, Yellow fang blenny, high-fin red banded goby and a powder blue tang.

    Corals:
    Candy cane
    Finger leather

    Maxi mini carpet anemone
    Long tentacle plate
    Short tentacle plate
    Open brain coral
    Feather Duster
    Coco worm
    Xenia
    Torch
    Few hammer frags
