As I mentioned before, I had a 55 gal saltwater aquarium 40 years ago for about eight years. I had a Dwarf Hawaiian Lion, a Copperband Butterfly, A Hippo Tang, a Blue Harlequin, 3 Clowns, a Striped Damsel and a Blue Tipped Atlantic anemome.
We moved around a few times, sold everything after the 1st move & now back into a reef 55 gal high this Jan.
About 10 years ago, while in St Thomas, a Boutique shop was selling a variety of hand painted reef fish. There is a crab hermit crab at the bottom coral. was blown away we had this corner nitch in our vacation home in Wildwood, New Jersey and thought I could create something special. The large piece of Fire Coral, at the bottom, I had in my original tank, along with some of the smaller pieces. That piece cost me $300 back then. It was not live. As for the seahorses, when they past, I shellaced them as a memento.
Here is my 55 gal high Reef currently 3 months old
