my clowns seem to like the gorgonpia

 

[jacknjill]

awesome. how long has it been set up? the one thing i would suggest is to put a black backround on it. iy makes all the difference

my first coral still one of my favorties and the camera hog

my trio of firefish

couldnt find a stand that I liked so I did my own

very nice tank, yea i say a backgound would complete it. and i think i see some green bubble algae, emerald crab can take care of that for u.but its still nice!

 

[durabane]

its been up for about 5 months now was thinking about a reflective backbround to help with lighting only have 4 wts per gallon does that help at all. my tang sees me coming with the camera and hides have two emeralds they seem to be eating everything but the little bubbles

 

[jobob]

is that 4 powerheads? and 3 are sweeping ones? i think it mite be a little over kill. i got 2 on my 55. but if it works!

do emeralds eat hair algae??

 

[durabane]

yeah 2 400 gph straight 2 270gph sweeps

 

[jacknjill]

no, the ones he has are fine! on my 55 i have 3 powerheads (1 sweeping) plus my filter (which is pretty powerful) and skimmer. you might want to add another powerhead or 2 on your 55.

most of the time. plus they eat bubble algae and lots of other things. very handy. im investing in 2 or 3 in the next few days

I think that is why my coraline is doing so will I keep the water flowing to spread the spores around and keeps the bad hair and other algeas down
