	stock for 55g
Patchy Enthusiast Posts: 224 Kudos: 195 Votes: 0 Registered: 25-Sep-2005	Hi all just after some thoughts on my stock list. i have just finished moving and am combining my old FOLWR and my nano reef into this 55g cube. Tank: 60x60x60cm glass tank 2x 1400L eheim canisters ( same bioligcal media from when set up at last hosue) 3x normal output fluros (this will be changed, im shopping around for something better) very thin layer of 2mm coral sand (already seeded from old tanks) 30kg live rock only have 10 in there now. ( i got to go pick rest of live rock up from old house, it is also already cured) Livestock 1x Fuzzy lion (about 4cm)* 1x fuzzy scorpionfish (cant find scientific name they got one at my lfs that i really like, told the max at 12cm) 1x coris wrasse or 2x Fuzzy lions 1x coris wrasse or 1xfuzzy 2x false percula 1x red coris (im leaning towards the last list) Im open to suggestions on live stock, i really wanted to make a small hunting party of fuzzy in a reef but i know 3 would be way to much on bio load. When i upgrade the lighting i will be bringing my mushrooms down, and get some more of the "hardier" types of corals too. i know alot of you will bag the 2 canisters rather than going sump, but i had the 2 canisters already and i always keep up on my 15% wc a week. i have never used 2 on one system i figured it would be good, so i can alternate cleaning of canisters. So give me your thoughts people on livestock mostly the equipment is set in stone really

Patchy Enthusiast Posts: 224 Kudos: 195 Votes: 0 Registered: 25-Sep-2005	yeah i knew very little about the scorpion fish, i found one at my lfs and was searching by pictures and found they grow alot more than the 4inches they said. thank god for the internet The pair of clowns i have are already adult size and have been kept with a previous adult fuzzy(8 inches long) for 5 months. i have a knew 5cm fuzzy that is waiting for tank to cycle, so i believe they are safe. it been my expierence the fuzzy cant tackle as big a fish as other lions. anyone have some fish sugestions?
