    How many Feather Dusters?

    Common dusters will reproduce readily if they are kept in dense groups and given proper nutrition and not disturbed. I add Nutra-Sea Rock & Sponge Food, and it makes a noticeable difference in growth rates. This is a quick pic, it looks like this all the way across the back of my 100gal reef.

    Lunare Wrasse for sale

    Just realized a point that may be confusing. It will eat any and all foods put into the tank:flake, frozen prepared, frozen whole, fresh. Hope this clarifies things a bit.

    YES Soda water does work!

    Shipping would be pretty much the same as with any specimen. Double-bagged in plastic with 1/3 full of water, inside a styrofoam cooler, inside a cardboard box.

    How many Feather Dusters?

    Feather dusters are harmless to all other life, as they only filter particles out of the water. If you want proof, I can try to take a picture of my feather duster breeding bed in the back of my 100gal reef, where I have around 200 1" white dusters growing. Been thinking of taking a pic, anyways.

    Power Head

    A Fluval 304 pumps 260 gph, a Skilter pumps either 250 gph or 400 gph, depending on model. Total would either be 510 gph or 660gph. At minimum, you are getting your water turnover at over 12 times per hour, so you should be fine, as long as the current is being dispersed evenly throughout the...

    55gal

    Well, maybe his brainpan is so large that simple mathmatics are below his ability, as it was for Einstein. One would think that being so knowledgeable, he would already understand all of this, though. :P

    Advice on a new set up

    The setup I recommend, and has worked the best for me in my experience, would be(adapted to your size tank) 100# of LR, 125# of fine-grade LS, a GOOD protein skimmer, IceCap 660 ballast with 4 48" 110watt bulbs(giving you 440watts total, or just under 6 watts.gal) With 2 of those being actinic...

    water hardness

    If your water is that hard, I'm guessing you haven't been using RO/DI or distilled water? If not, then I would highly suggest multiple water changes with RO/DI water.

    Lighting for corals

    If money is no object, then I would suggest getting 2 IceCap 660 ballast, each running 3 60" 140watt lamps, 3 Actinic blue and 3 10,000k. This will give you 8.4watts/gal of balanced light, giving you enough lighting to keep pretty much any coral(depending on placement in tank), and pretty much...

    I'm cheap. ;) Actually, since my store is shut down right now(renovating the location) I'm not charging much, and not keeping anything in stock right now. My MaRS unit and my acrylic display tanks are all empty right now, and I am only doing custom ordering, delivery upon receipt right now...

    Power Head

    If you don't have anything that would give you some current(i.e. powerhead, canister filter, hang-on filter, overflow and sump) you really need to get one. You don't want stagnant water in your tank, as many opportunistic organisms will breed in these places that you don't want. If you don't...
