ill go first. i have a 55g with 5x28w t-5s, my filtration is just a penguin 330, and a seaclone skimmer, but soon better. i have candy canes, hammers, frogspawn, bubbles and shrooms and zooz. a maroon clown, a pink spotted sleeper goby, and a cleaner shrimp


i built the stand and hood myself. the stand still needs doors though...o ya and i just turned 16

This is my 55 gallon reef. By the way, I'm 13. And, my tank is TOTALLY self-funded.
Tank size:55 gallons
Lighting:4x40 watt NO fluorescent lighting (2x10k, 2xactinic)
Filtration: 1xaquaclear 300, 1xaquaclear 200, 1xlee's counter current protein skimmer
Fish list:2 clowns, 1 blue devil damsel, 1 lawnmower blenny, 1 yellow tang (dont worry, i have plans for him when he outgrows my tank), and 1 diadema pseudochromis
Did I miss anything?

Yep...I just take everything REALLY REALLY slowly. I use money from my birthday and christmas for my tank, and every once in a while, I get 5 bucks or whatever, for subbing for my neighbor's paper route.
Plus, there's always mowing the lawn, and doing other chores and stuff.

I've had several. At that time, I didn't have any. The tank was relatively new in that picture. LOL Which angel are you speaking of? As I said before, over the years, I have had a ton of them.
