Right now i have about 15 pounds of base rock (the white coral rock stuff), another 15 in ultra premium Fiji, 7 pounds of Florida plant rock, and 10 pounds of Marshall island, Plus another 10 pounds of base rock and 20 pounds of Fiji on its way. Now after all the explaining my question is can i mix those three types of rock with out any problems and also what will happen if I do mix them and leave them together? Also is that enough live rock for a 55 gallon tank or do i need more? thanks and remember i am new to the saltwater world thanks. _________ (1) 55 gallon tank (1) Freedom Filter unit (1) shop light (1) Power-Glo 18000k T-10 40watt bulb (1) 40 Watt Florecent Bulb (1) 602 power head (1) Ebo-jager 375watt submersible heater (35lbs) Fiji Ultra-Premium LR (10lbs) Marshall Island LR (7lbs) Florida plant rock LR (25lbs) Coral Base rock (2) Orange Fire Fish Goby (1) Mexican Turbo Snail (3) Alage eating Hermit Crab
