    Hello, my name is Santiago Perez out of Boca Raton, FL. Although I've had saltwater aquariums in the past (Don't know how they lasted more than a month!) I consider myself a newbie and am trying to learn as much as I can before I take off with my new setup.

    I was given a 180 Gallon tank with a sealife wet/dry and protein skimmer. It looks like an Impact model but slightly different. A Dolphin 1/3HP pump two 110w Atinics and two Metal Haylides (sp?). THis was a setup that was up and running about two year ago then went into storage since.

    I hope you guys are patient with my newbie questions and look forward to learning from you pros.

    Sincerely,
    Santiago Perz
