About Yourself:
Always have loved animals. I wanted a beautiful peace of the ocean in my room. I started and failed with a nano 12 gallon cube and found out the difficulties the hard way(yellow box fish died and poisoned all my other fish and killed them). I love my fish and it is a good part of my day to see them get excited when I go to feed them.
Fish Kept:
Stars and Stripes Puffer(Arothron hispidus), Barred Moray eel, Sailfin Tang, Kole Tang, Blue Hippo Tang, Green Chromis, Yellow Wrasse, Maroon Clown, Humu Humu Trigger
Corals/Plants:
Live Rock
Tank Size:
55 gallons
Advice:
A great looking aquarium dose not always have to be so expensive you can't afford it. However make sure everything is what you want. I am extremely happy with my aquarium. It took a long time to get everything stabilized. Don't stress if you lose fish, it happens. But once you have everything you need and you get some bad and good experiences under your belt, it will all be good from there!
Description:
55 gallon uniquarium. Lighting efficient for reef, however just used for fish only. Biological Balls and live rock to house bacteria. A lot of good hiding places for fish. Chiller that is ran throughout the summer. Decorations including a conch shell, dead colored coral, rubber coral, and fake red seaweed. I re-sanded, varnished, and worked on the top and bottom wood. New pictures soon!

Tank Size:
55 gallons
Advice:
enjoy the process, dont rush things. it is one of the most amazing processes i have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. i loved doing the aquascaping with each of my fishes personalities in mind.some like to hide, some like to rest and some like to swim so set the tank up with lots of options for those needs.
although i dont currently have an isolation/aclimation tank i would recomend it if you plan on having bold or agressive fish they will bite and end up killing new fish that seem week.the biggest problem i have is the older fish attacking new arrivals. i am going to try using a small hatchery for the time being.
Description:
not the best pic, all the fish decieded to hide from me. but i love my tank!
