Default Our first reef

http://s1049.photobucket.com/albums/...rent=photo.jpg

My wife and I decided to get into the hobby three and a half months ago and here's what we have so far in our 75gal build

2- ocellaris clowns
1- flame angel
1-cleaner shrimp
1-peppermint shrimp
1-emerald crab
1-sand star

And our clean up crew of hermits and snails

Corals we have:

Umbrella
Pulsing Xenia (thanks Tim)
Kenya tree
Three kinds of mushrooms
Fuzzy toadstools(I think)
Star polyps

Plus 85lbs of live rock.

Our future livestock list is:

Torch coral
Hammer coral
Zoas (two or three kinds)
Pom pom crab (wife loves them! Lol)
Maybe a couple pink anthias
And a mandarin in a few months

Any suggestions or tips ate greatly appreciated!

Thanks
Adam

beware the zenia, they can spread fast, keep them high as they don't ussually move down.
the pom poms are anemones and can sting stuff

Thanks Bblinks! I can't seem to load a photo right on to the site from my iPhone.

And thanks for the input Cal_stir. I have our xenia at the very top of our rocks. Do the Pom poms attack other live stock?
