New Tank - Pic

Nice tank. I think my next tank will be a 55... big but still small enough to handle!

55g are great.. BUT.. stay away from them lol
after you get going with them.. you will find that they are WAY too narrow.. and are limited with what you can do.. going to a 65g would make you much happier!! :bounce3:
 
The tank looks great. I am on the same boat as everyone else about epoxy the rock. But I really like what you did with the aquascaping.
 
I don't want to rain on your parade but how long have you had that tank up and running? I hope it's longer than it appears. According to what you posted it looks like you already have 2 chromis and 4 clowns? That's too many too fast for a new tank and if your tank is a young as I think it is you really shouldn't have any fish yet. LFS saying your water is 'perfect'? Has the tank even cycled yet?
 
Yeah, I have to agree with above posts. Too many fish to fast. Even if the tank is cycled you still only want to add 1-2 every other week and let your biological filter catch up. If you feed light for a couple of weeks you'll probably be ok. Now is a good time to invest in a test kit so you can keep an eye on ammonia and nitrite. You really need to be able to test your own water.
 
I agree too many fish too fast. Also watch that turbo snail as they dont' live long in warmer waters and it may die. If your tank isn't cycled, this can cause a huge water issue. get snails such as cerith, astrea, margarita and nassarius.
