I currently have had a reef tank up & running for about 2 years. We had lots of equipment problems off and on which have caused us to lose most of our coral.
What I have left is a Pajama Cardinal, Blue Damsel, Black & White stripe damsel and a mandarin goby, purple mushrooms all over, a swollen brain, disc coral & some yellow polyps, snails, hermits, 2 serpent starfish.
I found that I don't have enough time to keep up with the tank to keep coral anymore but I don't want to give up the tank completely.
My husband & son would like a puffer fish and maybe a trigger or some other fish that are fun to watch. If I get rid of most of the corals that are left, is it easier to maintain a fish only tank?
My understanding is the lights don't have to be as strong and they are easier upkeep. Is this true?
The tank is a 75 gallon and we have about 80-90 lbs of live rock with a wet/dry, protein skimmer.
Any suggestions, help is appreciated. Thanks.
