Tank after 1yr. What you think?
My tank just had it's first B-day. I have setup a 55 with built in filter system I drilled to add a fuge. I am running two Remoras, TLF Reactor, and new dual 250w Halides (still messing with them). Knock on wood I have had good luck. Mandarin was my only loss. (listen to RC on the subject) Sorry, couldn't resist posting some pics. What you think?
Initial Setup  Built-in Filter  Add a little sand and rock  Fuge started  First Inhabitants

+1 I like the picture of the goby too.
Do you have any emerald crabs? They will make short work of that green bubble algae. If you do have some fire them and get new ones

Thanks for all the compliments. My Kole is a really beautiful fish. Funny thing is he is a "herbivore" but he wont eat nori. All he does is pick at the coraline and eat meaty foods, but he seems happy and adds lots to the tank. I am trying to stay away from crabs, but need to knock out this bubble algae. Think they will mess with anything in my tank?
