Opps... forgot to mention, i haven setting up my tank, as i would like to learn more from u guys first before i put everything together...

Here is some of my idea for the tank:
1. 50 gl tank
2. 5-6 clown fish (not as the cycling fish)
3. anemonae for clown fish (how much do i need :roll: )
4. Live Rock
5. Coral
6. Protein Skimmer
7. Filter (any recommendation?)
8. Light
9. Extra (please suggest)

Hope to get ur guys comment on this, will really appreciate all... thx

Hey
Youy have the very basics of the tank down, it will need to get more info as to what lighting, what protien skimmer, what anemone, what coral and such. feel free to start a thread in the reef tank section or something and i am sure we can help you out.

:welcome: to coral forum as well!!!!!

also, in a 50 gallon tank, im going to caution your against so many clowns . the tank will be overstacked(possibly) and that many clowns in a 50 might get kinda fiesty. Clown will do better in pairs most of the time

Anemones Need extremely high water quality to thrive, and this is something you wont be able to do for about 6 months, while the tank really figures itself out.

I put your questions in a seperate thread in the Beginner's discussion forum, entitled " New to salt- questions" it should get more attention there...
