I think that I would consider not using the wet/dry.

From your phosphate levels, I would take a look at that Eheim and that Rena as the culprits. They really aren't neccesary for a succesful reef, and can in fact hinder one.

I think you mean nitrat not po4 , ok now im planning to remove the eheim wet/dry filter from my system , but im worry from system crash !!!!

I'd say too many fish...

 

[landragon]

oops i did mistype. but yeah.

Do you got any full tank shots?

It looks nice how you stacked the LiveRock, for being only 70lbs

Poor tangs.... They need more room. A pair of dragonettes is pretty extreme with 70 pounds of rock in a 55g, they might get hungry over time.

The tank looks great!

i like it, very nice

with 70lbs of LR, why is that not your source of filtration? From all that i have read, canisters and wet/dry filters (bioballs) are nitrate factories. Can you take bioballs out of a wet/dry and turn it into a sump of some sorts? I have a SeaClean System II set up and instead of using the bioballs, i filled it with LR.

The tank looks good. The amount and type of fish you have in there worry me though. You should have 1 let alone 2 tangs in a 55g. You shouldnt have 2 dragonettes in there either. Do you have a fyge to keep up with their heavy feedings. Other then that the tank looks good. I would just remove both of the tangs.

 

[fishyz]

Please get rid of your tangs. They need much more swimming space. I wouldn't even consider 2 tangs for my 90g.

Agree on the tangs... I had to talk myself into getting 1 Yellow for my 120... Even then, I'm planning on another tank down the road....

 

[t-bone2]

wow very good looking tank nice fish to the tangs are fine at this size but you will want to remove at least the hippo as it will become quite large but im sure you already know nice job on the tank

Nice Tank. I really like the aquascaping and the clam.
