I was cleaning my 55g aquarium and I flipped it over to inspect it further. It seems that some of the bottom trim flexes a little when I try to push against it. Is this structurally concerning? It doesn't seem to leak from what I could tell - it's been holding water for days.

Give me some good fish ideas please! So far I have: 2 clownfish 1 baby yellow tang 1 royal gramma basslet 1 firefish 1 engineer goby is this overstocked already? I want some big fish but only if they can stay in a 55 all their life, unlike the tang. I plan on rehoming the tang once it gets big.

Hey guys, So I’ve been checking out various fish I can add to my 55 gallon reef to round things off. One of the fish I’ve been looking at is the flame hawkfish and I saw that Matthew recommended this fish in a stock list similar to mine for a 40 gallon reef on the BRS channel. I would really...

How do you all go about deciding where to place your corals? I’m not talking about high or low light/flow, but more so where within the area of the tank they would succeed? I’ve narrowed down a list of possible corals I’d like to add, but haven’t been able to pull the trigger on any because I...

Hi, I am curious about 55 gallon stocking. I don’t have a 55 gallon, I’m just really interested in what could live with a pair of maroon clowns in a 55 gallon. I know they can be very aggressive so what other stocking would you recommend to go with them in a 55 gallon?
