Hey guys,

Just wanted to say a big thank you for making a less than stellar year into a slightly more enjoyable version of it. I greatly appreciate the support you guys have given me and the inspiration as well as the plenty of laughs and online companionship... with the occasional ribbing.

I started a build thread to document my journey for me to reference and share with those that may find interest in it. I didn’t think it would become what it is today but I am thankful for it. It brings me lots of joy to post and share and reef photography has become a very enjoyable side hobby for me... hopefully videography as well on the horizon with the new camera.

I am taking the rest of the year off from posting pictures to enjoy the holiday break, to tell 2020 to go screw itself, to enjoy the family, to welcome a new wonderful year, and to knock on the door of my 40s. Thanks again for everything! Enjoy your friends, family, and loved ones, be safe, and be kind to each other. Happy 2020 reef year!

-Ty

Well deserved break Ty! Happy New Year! 2020 is over now and so is your break! Now get back to work posting pics for us. Slacker! :p
 
How are you running your tank? It seemed at one time you ran the tank without a sump very similar to an all in one tank. I tried to read back thru the thread, (but 300pages plus was to much) i couldn’t find that info
 
Curious as to what lights you have hanging over the tank?
Currently Aquaticlife hybrid with 2 b+ and 2 actinic T5 bulbs with 3 Radion G4 Pros

You know, at the time you posted this it was still 2020 in the States. :p But I was taking up to the 2nd off since I rung in my 40th that day. Older and wiser now... watch out.

I have always run a sump with my systems since 2009. Maybe another Farmer?
 
Happy birthday, Ty! :D
Thank you very much! I’m officially 40 now so I’ve decided to post one picture for every year I’ve been alive. Okay, not really but appreciate the birthday wishes!
 
I’m back! Vacation over, birthday over... it’s a New Year! I welcome 2021 gladly with open arms! Anything is better than 2020!

With that, a smattering of pics to start the new year right.

Backup system still rocking. Don’t mind the algae... it’s almost getting there. Once fully mature I’ll see less algae
