    We are all very excited to see what you can do mate !! You'll come to see how often there seems to be a dozen opinions/ways to get the same result...which is a beautiful and healthy reef !!!

    Any type of clowns that you are really hoping to find?

    Thanks Vizzle... I'm looking into Black Ice Clowns but am open to any that just catch my eye to be honest... but no maroons..

    Plan on picking up a Ricordea Mushroom to start things off as well... but I may hold off a few days on that...

    Is there a Clean Up Crew (CUC) in there yet??

    I love Ricordia mushrooms !!! And black ice clowns are also beautiful.

    If you wanted something to go with the clowns, you could always get an angle fish instead of the wrasse.

    John at reefcleaners is wonderful for clean up crews. He's got pre-designed packages as well as custom packages if you send him a message.

    Congrats man. Black ice clowns are one of my favorites. In this hobby all have opinions. Some based on personal experience and others on what they've read. Take in all the info you can and make a choice depending on what you want to do. There will be a lot of trial and error as you progress in this hobby. In the end just enjoy it! Your the one looking at it everyday. Us 3reefers will always be here to help along the way. Hope to see pics soon my friend.

    Thanks Dennis! So I just got back from the LFS and unfortunatley I didn't find any clowns that I fell in love with :(

    BUT... I did see a One spot foxface that I loved and ended up grabbing him!

    I will put a link in a moment to the thread I start for him..
