This is my tank. It's a 54 gallon corner tank. Live rock some soft corals. A clean up crew including a Mandarin. I also have a Valentini Puffer I just switched to Red Sea Coral Pro salt it's about 2 months old. And all my numbers send e perfect the tank seems to be thriving. I'm very happy what would be my next logical step ? How long should I wait before introducing some more corals ? And what would be a good suggestion I like bright colors any ideas would be appreciated

Yes I'm using a canister filter that's correct. I'm assuming at some point I'll have to add a protein skimmer right ?

My current setup is a 29 bowfront. I had a canister filter, but recently switched out the can for a HOB refugium and a nano skimmer. Given the size of your tank and it doesn't look like anything going on in the corner of the tank, you should be able to throw a HOB skimmer on there.

Very Intriguing! I have the Same setup. (Not as clean but) I enjoy seeing your progress. Good luck with the flow. I can't seem to figure it out[emoji23]. If you ever upgrade to a demo and little 10g fits perfectly[emoji1362]. Following

**Edit** The HelioFungia in the bottom left had died and further been removed from the tank.
