Default My reef tank obsession

I'm new to reef builders, but I have a passion for caring for and maintaining reef aquariums. My current tank is a 54g bow front corner tank. I have 50lbs of live sand and 75 lbs of live rock. I have a mating pair of purple reef lobsters, a pair of skunk cleaner shrimp that seem to always be pregnant, diamond goby, foxface tang, black and white clown who is crazy about my bubble anemone, flame hawk, 2 small yellow gobies, a couple of sea urchins, 2 brittle stars (ocassionally I see small transparent babies crawling around), 2 tube anemone's, orange sponge, rhicordea, brain, hammer coral, frogs pawn, clams, etc. My tank is pretty full at this point. It's been running since the end of 2002. My water levels have been perfect for a few years. I do a 5 gallon water change once a week using instant ocean reef crystals. I have a prizm skimmer, magnum 350 filter 2 powerheads and 250 watts of lighting. I just found this site and hoping to network with others about new ideas, products, methods, etc.
