I would have to lean toward a community tank

With that being said what are some suggestions for this tank. I'm open for all suggestions

Need some help adding fish. I have a 90 gal 35lbs lr 80 lbs ls pro clear 150w/ protein skimmer and presently have a sailfin tang, sfe, niger trigger. I want to add more triggers what if any kind of triggers can I add? Was hoping to stick with a primarily triger tank.

It is the correct reading, I checked it several times to be sure. I also have a pro clear 150 sump w/ a built in protein skimmer. I was planning on adding a trigger and a lion fish in the future and slowly adding more lr and stopping there. Will these fish have an issue with the tang?

I was planning on adding more fish soon. I recently did a water test and came up with these readings. Nitrite 0, Ammonia .25, Nitrate 10, PH 8.4 The tank has been up and running for about 9 weeks (90 gal) 30lbs of lr and 80lbs of ls. These readings have been holding steady for 2+ weeks. I have a...

The skimmer is inside the sump so I will not take that into the calculation. The return pump I have is rated for 1000 gals per hour but I had to put a in line ball valve to reduce the flow. So between that and the length of return hose I would guess I'm at around 600-700 gals per hour. Each ph...

This is an older pic. The bubbles are gone. Many if not all the people who have seen these pics recommended removing them. I have a pro clear 150 series that came w/ a protein skimmer.

Do 3 30 gal rated phs produce enough water movement for a 90 gal. I do plan to make it into a reef tank in the some what near future. The reason I ask is I was give 3 new phs for FREE.

I will try to get a better pic

I've been searching for an ID on these things can anybody help :help: There is an identical one on another peice of lr but it is clear or greyish colored. They came w/ the lr and seem to be surviving very well. At night there tantacles really come out and more so during the day now that I added...

So if I buy lr at my lfs that has been cured I do not have to do anything to it. I can just put it my tank? The reason I ask is I've been having a problem with the amonia level in my tank and 1 sailfin tang 1 damsel and 1 sfe. Tank has been up for 8 weeks

Is it true that you need to cure lr purchased from a lfs. I've read that you should cure pre-cured lr. If this is not done it could raise the amonia in an exsiting tank. True or False.

What do you all recommend, for fish, for a 90 gal. Eventually I would like to make a reef out of it but this will probably not happen for a while due to Budget restraints(the Mrs.)

Sun coral? good, bad or indifferent

Presently I have about 20 lbs of lr and 80lbs of ls. I try to add few lbs of lr and some base rock at the same time. Its work in progress. What your saying is to remove the bio balls when there is a sufficent amount of lr? Im new to this type of filtration. The last sw tank I had wasa 55 gal 15...

good looking tang. I have the same one it eats very well and is out and about all the time. Mine does not look as healthy as yours. Colors are faded. The only thing I could come up with is that he is stressed due to the fact I had to replace the filter. my original filter, a mega flow model 2...

great video clip. I noticed you have a lot of water movement in you tank. What do you recommend for phs in a 90 gal. I set it up about 7 weeks ago and I am slowly building it for a reef tank

Any idea what this is came w/ the live rock. I posted on the hitchhiker thread and was told it could be a hidden cup coral. at night it will open and appears to be an anemone.

Bubbles are gone and Im slowly adding more live rock. I went to the lfs and they just got a new batch of lr. It will be a little while b4 its ready to go. As for the sail fin I was under the impression a 90 gal was more than sufficent but im no expert.

better pic?
