Re: A 55 Gallon is Born!!

well my 55g has started to some degree. i have 8 pounds of fiji in there right now in a stone henge fashion, which gave me a great idea to put a big piece of flat lr on top of it creating a cave thing, the natural piller look, and a great place for frags. i have some mush in there to boost the cycle, will be ordering 20 lbs or lr from pea.com soon. thats all for now. oh yeah i also got a koralia 4 to finalize the flow i am having on this tank
