    55gal setup

    See, the problem is this hobby isn't just a hobby. For many it's an addiction. An affliction that creeps up on you which typically starts out with folks saying "oh I'll just get a few fish and everything will be fine, it's all good...really". Next thing you know you're building quarantine...

    55 gallon fish only tank

    If I get another filter and put on I can turn the tank over 13 times an hour and get more filtration I'd rather do that than buy a power head. My heniochus is just fine its got plenty of room. I had a blue tang in a 29 gal tank for a couple years it took him awhile to out grow it so if I get a...
