Reefergirl's 55G Tank Thread

[ReeferGirl]

Hi! This is my first thread here, my good friend Jimmy turned me onto this message board. Lots of info on here. I just wanted to share my tank so far. It's a 55 gallon glass tank. I took the slow route to setting it up. I had been researching for years before I finally took the plunge. Let me know what you think!
