HERES MY 55G REEF TANK. THIS IS A FEW PICS LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK. ALSO LET ME KNOW OF ANY CHANGES I SHOULD MAKE

 

[inachu]

Sweet!
Is that an algae or anemone on the right?
The green ball.

 

[newreef06]

GREEN STAR POYLOPS

 

[cdness]

looks great! I was wondering about the same thing as inachu.

Watch out for the tang police though... They will out grow that tank VERY quickly... I guess that just gives you the excuse to upgrade in the future right?

I like the aquascaping of the live rock.

 

[singold]

Nice, how long have you had your tank going. Good Purple Coraline Algae growth!

 

[calli]

Very nice.. but I would take the covers off and put mesh or somthing like that.

 

[newreef06]

about 2yrs. I have to get more coral. Any suggstions where all the good deals are.

 

[vr697getta]

what kind of lighting do you have

 

[newreef06]

MH 300 WATTS 150W PER SIDE

 

[vr697getta]

also how much flow
ebay is where i get most of my corals and my local club
when you do a search for ebay search be location and see if any are close enough for you to pick up and SAVE on shipping i found 3 with in 15 miles of me craigslist is another great place that is over looked when buying corals
and as for what kind of corals i love caps a nice orange cap would look great in the center there are very hardy and are cheap if you can get as a small frag

 

[newreef06]

[newreef06]

Thanks

 

[vr697getta]

well i would say zoos tons of color most are fast growers and mushrooms rics

 

[newreef06]

yeah the rics look nice. I was going to buy a frag pack of them. And some zoos. My local fish store has stuff it pricy. Plus he doesnt take care of the stuff. His tanks look like crap

Nice tank but I would add more live rock, you have a lot of room in there.

 

[Rembee]

Very nice. Are you going to be adding more rock to it?

 

[SmknReefer]

be wary of LFS that doesn't take care of the tanks. Odds are just not properly educated or doesn't care etc. That in mind, everything may not be acclimated correctly or healthymaking big probs for your pretty reef you have going on there...

 

[Toddrtrex]

I would keep an eye on those green star polyps that are starting to grow on the bottom of the overflow -- in time they will cover that bottom intake.

 

[Nano Chris]

I would add more lr. Looks good though.
