Thanks guys that pretty much answers my question. Sounds like my Maroon Clown won't get a partner any time soon haha

a foxface?? what u get

I have the 48" version of this light fixture: Compact Fluorescent Aquarium Lighting: Coralife Aqualight Double Compact Fluorescent Strip Lights I have a 55 gal. tank and I was wondering what kind of corals are suitable with this type of lighting. I already have a few basic corals (mushrooms...

I used to have a snowflake eel. Same kind of deal. If it doesn't fit, it won't eat it. But the eel was so destructive in other ways that last summer, I had to sell it back to the LFS. If I could start over I would begin as a peaceful reef and keep it that way. An aggressive reef is much harder...

Regarding the Bicolor: IMO it would be a much larger risk to your tank if you get a lionfish. They may not harm corals but much more would be in danger.

Lionfish aren't reef safe are they? Even if they were I don't like to risk anything JMO

-There are some interesting and beautiful wrasses on: http://liveaquaria.com/product/scateg.cfm?pCatId=1378 -The only problem is they may not be as big as you want them to be. Just a suggestion. HTH

-Yeah I didnt mean adding it into the aquarium, but if small amounts enter the aquarium what would happen. Thanks for your answers I should definately try this! -Thanks!

-I would definitely reccommend a sump as it add to the beauty of your tank in a way. Trust me I have an ugly skimmer and HOB filter on the back and I really wish I had room and money for a sump. IMO lr is needed for the tank. It is great filtration and really make the SW tank. -Hope I could Help!

10k and 50/50 is a great combo for growth and beauty. Its what I have and has worked well. With this you could get corals in the future.

Thanks I should try this sometime! Is it at all harmful to fish or corals?

Those are a smaller version of what is in my 55 gal and they work great !

I have great coralline algae and other algaes (which is not the salts fault :? ) with oceanic JMO.

Now that your tank has cycled and you have some nice lights on their it looks soooo good! The coral additions are great. BTW what kind of lights are those! Overall a very nice improvement!!!

-Last time I did this my sand became all stirred up and I was placing my lr blindly. How can I avoid this this time so I can actually have a stable setup? -Thanks!
