Thanks for the help. My Jawfish seems to be carrying a large mass in its mouth for a few days now. I was wondering if it could be eggs?

Thanks, been watching these forums for a while now. Didn't know I would be that successful. I've only had a salt tank since June.

Hi guys! Thanks for the welcome! looks like I might just have to leave the boogers alone and let things happen.

My tank is set up like this:

2 percula clowns
6 green chromis damsels
1 Yellow Tang
1 green mandarin
use to be 3 yellowhead jawfish but think it's more like
2 now, with more to come hopefully.
6 Various Corals

55 Gallon tank
70 Pounds Live rock, first in the tank.
1 inch live sand
4 inches crushed coral
440 watts VHO lighting
20 gallon Eco-Systems Miracalmud refugium filter
Lifeguard filter, mechanical, chemical, heat, uv modules
2 Quiet One 4000HH Pumps, for refugium, and lifeguard
2 Sio M620's on timers
10 Gallon top off
2 "White" Mangrove Trees, purchased on eBay
Various Caulerpa, purchased on eBay 4/14/06. Today!

I'm going to have to buy a chiller, since I don't have any air conditioning in the room.

Can anyone think of any thing else I may need to do, e.g. more sand in the tank? Maybe a lighting issue? Please?

P.S. The specs, so far, came from reading your theads. Thank you!
