How many fish to a 75gal reef tank? Tank has very good filtrartion, 20 gal sump with a wmd40rlxt iwaki pump that pumps 1200 g.p.h.
I do a 10% water change every week.

All depends on size of fish, fish agression, what else is going into system, etc., etc. Whatever you put in your tank, do it slowly.

I agree with beth..... just be sure to get reef friendly fish.... but if you are going full reef just a few fish 3 - 5 , along with the cleaner crew....

Tronic is supposed to be the best brand there is. It is the only brand that uses an electronic (hence the name) thermostat instead of the unreliable bimetal strip that other companies use. And they cost only about 24 bucks at www.petsolutions.com and the darn LFS wants 39 for them...of course.
