Here is my 55 gallon reef. Just a precursor, I made a newbie mistake. Lol. Before I put water in my tank, I put it way too close to the wall. Now I have to wait for a new stand before I can put my protein skimmer on the back.
I am running 4 HO T5 lights 1 actinic (as soon as this semester is over ill have 2 actinics, FINALLY.) I have 1 standard HOB filter running just for some water movement. I also have a Reef Octopus BH-100, which I love and would suggest to anyone. It's so quiet!!! My stock is as follows:
-1 ocellaris clown
-2 blue green chromis (planning on filling out the school eventually)
-1 six line wrasse (does a heck of a job clearing bristle worms!)
-1 juvi engineer goby (I can't wait for his stripes to turn! )
-2 emerald crabs
-1 porcelain crab
-1 brittle star
-About 40 hermit crabs
-Kenya trees
-Hammer coral
-Assorted polyps(I've never tried to figure out what they are for some reason)
-Zoanthids
-Assorted mushrooms
-Pumping xenias
And here is a video. Hopefully it works.
