    hello! new tank owner

    welcome to sw. Now the big questions. How did you cycle the tank? Thats alot of fish for 54. The lion will eat your gramma and possibly the anthias. Sw is much different then fw. Far less fish in a tank compared to fw. Very slowly add fish. Such as 1 or 2 fish a month. Also live rock is dam...

    Need some guidance

    Lets start with the sand. If you have that much food left in the sand you don't have enough flow. You need some power heads to circulate the water and keep that stuff in the water column. Then whatever isn't eating gets removed by filtration. 2nd the trigger. If its eating it should be fine. I...

    Aquarium backgrounds

    To make whatsvin the tank stand out, a solid color is best. This is just an idea, possibly put a mirror on the back.

    Not 100% on this one

    i would say your trigger is beating the hell out of your fish. The tail on the other looks beat to hell. No thats not normal transition

    Saga of the Raccoon Butterfly in a Reef Tank

    Excellent. That is the one issue with copper banded butterflies, they can be tough to acclimate. My captive bred milletseed is my first try with them. Excellent fish, just a fondness for hammers.

    Saga of the Raccoon Butterfly in a Reef Tank

    Agreed. It doesn't seem to matter if they are well fed either. They just have a taste for them. My bf is captive bred too!! Still went rt after a hammer i put in.

    Saga of the Raccoon Butterfly in a Reef Tank

    Ha ha ha, very intresting read. Butterflies are generally not reef safe. They especially love hammers and frog spawn. Mine don't touch my zoas tho. The one exception is the copper banded. They are reef safe and also eat apatasia

    Lionfish compatibility and feeding?

    Your list is fine with a lion. That is alot of fish even for a 200 tho. I like a zebra moray myself. The net should be fine. As far as the heater. Yes you need what ever wattage is needed for your size tank. Most people keep them in the sump
