Hello everyone. I am not new to the saltwater business in the sense that I used to take care of other peoples tanks. On the other hand I am new to having my own tank. I currently have a 55gallon that is partially setup. I would really appreciate some ideas for aquascaping my aquarium as far as what I have already. If i have to purchase some more live rock I am ok with that too but I plan on having a mixed reef tank. If you have any ideas on how I can make my tank look better I would appreciate it. Here is what I have for now

The big thing I note is a 55 gallon tank with 5 clownfish. This is not going to work. They will almost certainly fight to the death until only two remain. Possibly one if they are beat up badly enough. My advice is to get rid of 3 of the clowns. A 55 is not large enough to support the territory of more then one pair of clowns.

I only want the 3 oscellaris clowns i got the damsel as my first fish not knowing any better and the cinnamon clown was from someone getting rid of their tank. I would like to get rid of the damsel and cinnamon clown but i cant catch the damsel and i dont want to kill them just cuz i dont want them. I currently have a zoanthid colony and mushroom ricordea frag. Once my tank is stable i would like to get a valida acropa coral somr aussie acan lord this comes as a 3 pack of frags and a candy cane coral. I am also trying to get rid of the hatian condy anemone in my tank too
