New Tank Setup

[bluerug]

This is my new 55 gallon set up that i have just set up today, with about 50 pounds of live sand and about 40-45 pounds of live rock. There is a place that i have left open so i can put my haddoni carpet there. the tank mates are going to be two maroon clowns, one that i have now should be a female, just need to pick up a little guy for her, the other is a yellow tail damsel. dont know what else to add but thinking of a six line wrasse or some kind of dwarf angel. I will be getting my Tek T5 4 54 watt bulb setup sometime this week. Here are some pictures and will be sure to post the progress along the way, all comments are welcome. Also what other tank mates should i get besides the pair of maroons and the yellow tail?

Some more pictures, by the way these lights are temporary.

Good luck with that Prizim skimmer. I ended up throwing mine at the wall. A aqua C Remora or a CPR bakbak would be a much better choice. I really like the stack and how you are placing that haddoni.

I had one of those little cheap heaters on a 10g qt tank a while back and it caught on fire, I would advise that you spend a little more and get a quality heater so you dont come home to a burnt down house

Congrats on the setup. It looks nice. I liked the rock I picked.

Check out Marine Depot or Premium Aquatics.

I guess the heater can be an insurance check if its going to burn down the house. :lol: Bluecarpet, how much did that heater cost you?
