I am in the process of getting my tank going again...I have made many mistakes in the past (as i have learned via this forum) and am trying to get it right, with your help. My 55 gallon has about 70 pounds of live rock ( i am adding a little more every week or so until i get to around 100+) My tank is cycled and I have 2 oscellaris clowns and just added 1 turbo snail and 4 small crabs as a beginning CUC. I realize crew needs to be much larger but I will increase numbers gradually as tank matures...my question is about my sand bed... I only have about a half an inch of fine sand in bed...do I need more? I have a good protien skimmer, am about to convert my aquaclear 500 to a mini fuge (thanks to post by sunny) and the aforementioned live rock...if I do need more, how do I go about adding it in......i guess I should say that my goal is to keep a tank with reef fish and some soft corals to start......
