Erin look at you and your tank success so far! Love the gobies and I bet the kids are enjoying the tank show each day. What an opportunity to teach young minds about the world of nature!

I've been thinking ahead to when I can add some corals to EJ, and I'm wondering about lights (I've got the 29g covered; I'll be using an OR T247). Right now, I have a Current USA Satellite Freshwater LED (I think). Lights are incredibly confusing to me, for some reason, and I'm having a hard time figuring out what would be best for a 10g. Whatever lights I get, they can't be expensive. Any advice you can give would be appreciated

You could also go with a Kessil H-80...not bad price wise at roughly $120, if you want to spend the extra $99 you can get the controller for it. I have seen several of them pop up on FB market recently around here maybe check and see if you can find one there locally?

LOL, took the words right from my mouth.

I know, patience is necessary. I think its one of those "wanting to rush because I'm nervous to do it" things. I know, makes no sense lol

Well, you are female.

;Hilarious KIDDING!

Seriously, I get it. You are unsure so you want to get into it right away to test what you have learned. Everyone is anxious in the beginning of a new tank. Even long time reefers. You have a vision and you want to see it come to life.

And also, if I'm going to fail miserably and kill all the corals, I'd rather get it over with sooner rather than later ;Hilarious

No skimmer on the 29. I didn't think I needed one, since I'm doing weekly water changes. Or at least, not until I start getting some of the more sensitive corals. And as far as the 125, let's get the 75 going before we start hounding him about the 125, shall we? Lol!
