Just introducing myself, will probably have questions as my tank matures. Stumbled upon the site after liking the website on facebook.

Tank is about 6 months old, This is my first tank and the only reason why I started was when the girlfriend moved in she had a 55 Gallon tank that sat in our living room for months used for holding college books.

The tank has cost me alot of money and time but is well worth it.

Specs
55gallon
48" 4 blub T5 SolarXtreme Deep Blue
100 SeaClone protein skimmer
Aquaclear Power Filter
Aquaclear 70 gallon powerhead
Hydor Koralia 240 Wave Maker

20lbs of Live Rock

Current Fish
2- Clowns
1- Blue Hippo
1- Spotted Goby
1- Fire Shrimp
1- Very Very Very Small Pistol Shrimp
6- Turbo Snails
2-Sand Shifting Star fish
1- Spine Sea Urchin came attached to the liverock











We purchased Two Firefish both passed away. First one died in less then a week the other took about a month to pass.

We also had to capture this monster hitchhiker. I seen him attack our clowns when the moon lights came on.

I purchased all our fish from Eddies Aquarium in Cohoes, NY and recommend the store to beginners they have been awesome and answered alot of our questions that were unclear when searching different websites.

Appreciate the source to ask questions and view alot of awesome advice and pictures.

Thanks, I love that I can check the forum with tapatalk. Been running into brown algae which I hear can be diatoms?

This is a picture just taken maybe 24hrs after cleaning the tank with a siphon yesterday. The bed was completely white. Now brown again.
