Hey all,
My name is Aaron, and I have a 80g deep blue rimless. The tank has been in the works since January, and has been wet since the beginning of may. I have a classic RO 110 skimmer, a sicce return pump, and 12 gallon refugium built into my sump. My sump is three camber, with skimmer chamber on left, return pump in the center, and the refugium on the left. I run filter socks that my grandma makes for me on both down lines. I have a pretty cheap, but effective fuge light I built out of parts from an ace hardware, and a bulb from lowes. I run a 48'' reefbreeder v2 light, I have an old school hydor korlia for my water movement at the moment, plan on upgrading at some point soon. do I got cheap and get two jebaos, buck up for the eco techs, or go with the newest tech and get the maxspect gyre? That is my current debate. I welcome you all to chime in.
I am planning on having a predominantly sps, lps, and zoa tank; so mix reef per se. As of now I have a few zoa frags, two sps frags, a lithophyllon with baby blue eyes, and a sweet acan frag. Joe Knows Reefs is my LFS, so I'm pretty lucky. It is such a great shop. I will post some pictures here soon, still trying to figure out the photobucket upload process on R2R. This is my third reef tank, and I have had about four or five freshwater setups. I had a 125g reef that was up for about 10 years, was broken down early this spring, it was bittersweet, the tank was far past its prime, and it needed to happen.
I have been on RC in the past, possibly because it was one of the only places around a decade ago, but I have been on R2R more and more lately and have really grow to respect and enjoy the community here.
Thanks,
Aaron
