    Hello all,
    I have been in FW for quite some time now, but I am going to be switching my 92 gal corner bowfront to a reef tank very soon.
    I have done lots of research and reading, and posts/PM on various fourms, and have gotten great, great advice...that no book can ever offer.

    I have a notebook full of plans, dwgs, etc...on my build. I have been researching and plannin getc since November.
    I have not mixed any salt yet, and I am already adicted.

    But I think the planning stage is so far great! I am a great researcher and planner when I want to be, and when the passion is there..defintly doing a job with this I think.

    I will start a build thread very soon.

    So far I have made some intial inportant purchases..as per my signiture and just finished finalizing my custom order with Roberto on a Reef Angel Contoller, and will also be ordering a DIY rapid LED kit(s) fo rmy DIY LED canopy....also purchased a SectraPure maxcap 90 RO/DI filter.

    Thanks to all that have helped so far and thakns in advance to all those that will and have contributed in the vast knowledge of these and other fourms.

    O.C.

    Awesome! Welcome to 3reef. Good thing you got an ro/di unit; you do not want red algae growing everywhere. Trust me; I've experienced that and it was NOT very pleasant lol
