I bought a 72 gallon bowfront four and a half years ago. It was already established and I made the mistake of just adding whatever fish looked "cute". Thousands of dollars later I was left with one damsel.
When that little fellow finally died about a month ago I decided to start over...and with more thought and planning.
I'm happy with any advice and tips you may provide.
Equipment:
72 gallon bowfront
wet/dry filter
protein skimmer
My tank has:
Fiji live rock
2 Percula clowns
Scarlet reef hermit crab
2 margarita snails
2 Mexican Turbo Snails
Serpent sea star
Emerald Crab
Red sea star
