wbkardine February 4, 2018 Share February 4, 2018 I'm new to the forum but have been keeping fish since I was in middle school. History: 10-30 gallon FW tetra tanks as a young teen/teenager (5-6 years) 50 Gallon mixed reef for 1.5 years then upgraded to... 100 Gallon mixed reef for 1.5 years Had to break out of this hobby due to job relocation across the country Currently: Got back into the aquarium hobby about 2 years later after I got settled in the NOVA area. Successful 40 Gallon mixed reef for 1 year (very DIY, custom) In the middle of upgrading that to a 150 gallon mixed reef. Set up a planted 10 gallon FW tank for my 4 year old son with gold fish fantail and cory catfish I got tipped on to this forum by the person I bought my 150 gallon tank from off of CL. Looking forward to contributing to the forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wbkardine February 23, 2018 Author Share February 23, 2018 (edited) This was a picture of my 40 gallon that I was running and the current state of the 150 gallon. I have all my coral huddled under my single AI Sol light right now...but don't worry that's only temporary. I got my 150 gallon set up and running. I made a few changes. First...I decided to go with my first Bare bottom tank. I'm excited to see how well this goes! I moved my Refugium with live sand and chaeto outside of the sump. I'm trying to get away without having my sump lit, as this creates maintenance issue with hard coralline algae mucking up my pumps and things. Eshopps Axium X-220 Skimmer BRS Carbon and GFO reactor, set up yesterday! New lights: ReefBreeders 48 v2 and 24 v2 under a custom canopy (Going up this week) Edited February 23, 2018 by wbkardine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
