hi everyone, this hobby started about 1 year ago for me.a good friend of mine gave me his 55 gallon tank previously having fish only in it. not ever having a fish tank in my life, i decided to go with the mixed reef :smile: thats a good starting point right. i gained the little bit of knowledge i have today from books, lfs, and now hopefully r2r. quik overview of tank is 55 gallon tank. 60pounds of dry rock 20pounds live rock. pretty basic sump, it has 2 filter soxs, cpr sr4 protein skimmer, 2 9watt uv sterilizers, heaters, phosphate upflow reactor, and return pump. lighting consists of outer orbit 150 hqi with 2 130watt dual actinics. will go into more detail about tank and inhabitants as soon as i can post some pics along with it. i have lots of questions that i hope you guys can help me with. thankyou for reading and i look forward to chating with you soon. thats enough typing for me now i have to break in slow. coming from a construction site to reefering and the internet forum is a big jump for me. bear with me and thankyou for your time.
