Hello all. Here is my tank. It is a 33 gal with a HOB filter and a powerhead. I got it used from someone, and now I'm just getting it established at my house. It has its problems. Which I will tackle one at a time. Today I will be pulling all the rock out and spraying it all with peroxide. Hopefully it will get rid of all the bad stuff growing on the rocks. I also have to try to deal with the bubble algea appearing. We will also be doing a water change today. Wish us luck.
We have 3 main inhabitants. 2 clowns (Bonnie and Clyde) and a golden coral banded shrimp (Jesse James) for the amusement factor I will share that I am a Jail Deputy and all my fish friends will be named after famous criminals anyway! Just sharing! Here are our other inhabitants:
1 neon green hammer coral
1 bi color hammer coral
1 rainbow clove
1 Ricordea mushroom
1 pulsating Xenia
1 rock anemone
1 Aussie lobophyllia
1 Kenya tree coral
1 Duncan coral
1 stunner chalice
Multiple zoas
1 toadstool leather
1 trumpet coral
1 pyramid favia
2 types of montiporas (sunset and mystic sunset)

A little tank update. We switched the gravel for sand, OH my does it look so much better! And added a little few more coras and a beautiful Valentini puffer!

Have I told you our tank naming scheme? So here goes. I am a correction officer by career, and all my VIP tank mates are named after famous criminals I have Bonnie and Clyde, baby face (Nelson), Jesse James, and tonto

So far the Valentini puffer (baby face) has shown no interest in my corals! Score! I DID however pull my 2 emerald crabs after one tried to eat it!

Figured I would update my thread. Did a little re-arranging of rocks and such! My little valentini puffer remains my favorite. He is so darn cute! And such a character!

Cool tank! I love the fish names! What are the dimensions on that tank. I like that it seems long and shallow.
