the 55 gallon reef


almost full...

its full now...

This tank has been set up as a reef for a few months now and doing great!
All of the coral was in my old 20g tank. My friend Chris graduated college so he gave me some of his corals and rock, I had just enough room for it all. For information and photos of my fish and coral click on the links below.
