Overstocked? How is it overstocked. Yes eventually the Naso Tang will need a bigger tank but not the ocean nor will any of the other fish will. But I do agree that is a little too much fish for a start.

two clowns
a naso tang
moorish idol (which have INCREDIBLY poor survival rates in captivity, esspecialy in a tank as small as a 55 where there is little live rock to graze on)
YWG
racoon butterfly
6 fish, not bad..... now.... six fish where 3 of them are going to get way too big. they are all pretty good sized fish except for the two clowns and the YWG
and because of the poor survival rate of the moorish idol, i believe it belongs in the ocean and in the ocean only.

I would definately get more liverock. But to replace the moorish idol I would get a dwarf angel. Probably a pgmy angel, flame angel or coral beauty.
Anyway, heres mine: Wait...how do you get pics on here. Like I took a picture of my new tank and saved it under my pictures. Now how do i get it on? Sorry about getting off topic, i just want to post a pic of my 55.

It isnt a Naso Tang people!!! It is a Powder Brown. Jesus. And I am taking it back to the LFS. Are you heppy? And the Moorish, I am getting to eat. He is fine. So Please dont criticize me. Plus, I didnt get all of these fish at once. I has the 2 Clowns for a month, added the Butterfly, afterr a month, added the Morrish, and after another month, I added the Tang (Powder BROWN).
