    I had kind of done the same thing with my 75 gallon I used to have. Went from fish only to reef with fish. Really not much difference with the fish load just a few less. I loved the reef with fish, the only thing to remember is there will be limitations on what fish can go in a reef. My wife always wanted fish that weren't compatible in a reef.

    Yeah, thats true. You are only limited to certain fish. Ive always wanted a huma trigger..I guess ill have to stay wanting it..my 90 gal. is a full blown reef and my other 2 are just small to house 1.

    Is the huma tuffer on a reef, I used to have a niger in mine but they can be hit and miss also. Also had a coral beauty that never bothered mine and I heard they are the same.

    Beginners luck, or just ignorrant luck.

    Sounds like you need two tanks? There are plenty of good deals on this website, go for it! Oh by the way I have a baby clown trigger being quarantined in my SPS and LPS 29 gal, live on the edge!
