Hello all from Lil Rhody!! No, we are not a part of Long Island, and no, we are not an island at all! We do have great beaches and a relatively clean estuary in Narragansett Bay. The Gulf stream flows by in the summer months, and if you are lucky you might catch a glimpse of some real beauties.
I have been in the hobby since JANUARY, I received an oceanic Biocube 8 gallon as a gift, and decided to try my first reef??? Yes I know what you are thinking, how much are your co-pays to the psychiatrist? lol
Seriously though, I had a heater malfunction early on and completely understand the term "kill box."  Since then things have been better,  and I have a Pipe organ coral, a purple mushroom, a pulsating xenia and a frogspawn. Fish population includes a grumpy shrimpgoby, a six line wrasse, and a percula clown. I do 20% water changes weekly, and recently found out the LFS sells RO water for 75cent/gallon, so will use this.
I am looking forward to anty and all help, and I am here if I can help?? |
