    Hey guys,
    I have been on this forum for 2 years and I have learn soooo much, but rarely put up pictures so I figured its time. So those were when I first started 2 years ago. Got the tank on craigslist it had no base cabinet so we made one to match the canopy. the tank came with t12 I ran those for 3 months and then switch to t5 and then when It was time to switch my bulbs it was gonna be $250 so we put that toward Leds. I have been running Leds for 1 year and I am very happy with them.

    I don't have many corals, I have lost some when I moved my tank 2 months ago due to major renovation, that location is not its final resting place we are doing an addition on the house and planning to buy a new tank with built in overflow either a 125 gallon or a 180. I wanted bigger but i am thinking of the cost of maintaining a big tank. Enough with talking and hopefully you enjoy the pix.
