My 55 Gallon Reef

Nice. A hippo & a yellow tang in a 55? You should upgrade to a 90 or 110 and get the sailfin you want too. lol

 

About how big are your two tangs now? I want one, but not sure about adding it to my 55. I will be going to college in 2 yrs then my sophomore year I would like to have the tank with me in an apartment. How long could I have one before I need to upgrade?

I asm trying to decide on fish & still have a few months, but I think this is what I will get..1 CB angelfish, 2 Firefish, 1 McCocsker's Flasher Wrasse,
5 Yellow Stripe Clingfish. Just thinking.

 

I could really use some help getting my tank back in shape, see if you can help me

Not a good reef fish. I had one of these that i spent 4 hours trying to get out of my tank.( he kept nipping at the corals and other fish!

 

Wow really nice 5 tank man. When I had a 60 show tank I just could not get mine to pop!! Looks great!

 

Thanks, but I wish is was like that, that was eariler this year. That aemone you see that about the side of a penny. Also my shrimps and coral died.

 

I am sorry to hear that. Its a great hobby, an expensive one but my kids just love to learn as well. I have noticed in the six years of reef tanks i have had its a handshake between water flo, lighting, and water quality. I have recently learned to choose my fish a little better. I had to get out that 3 stripe and another damsel last night took me four hours(let them out in the wild,didnt flush em) but now the tank is very peaceful(my fire goby is out all day long now.. Keep up having fun with your tank!!
