Hello from Kansas City!

TWA · Aug 7, 2018

I’m from Kansas City, not new to aquariums (been keeping them off and on for 13 years), but new to reef2reef.

I’ve previously been active on reef central and salt city.org (Kansas City specific website) but it has since closed down.

I’m 25, getting married soon (October) and getting my tank back up and running. I come from KC, (anyone else?), enjoy beer, whiskey, and fish.

I’m a land surveyor by trade, and I’ve got some dogs.

My tank is a 135 gallon (5ft long by.. 31 tall. By 18 wide maybe?) with a 30 gallon sump. Way too much live rock.
Just wanted to introduce myself!

I'm not sure if I can help you much....you have three strikes against you....you're getting married, you have a saltwater tank, and you have a drinking problem. Oh wait, that describes my life!

Oh boy I know I’m gonna get it for the amount of rock and crushed coral, but that’s my tank. Needs to be rearranged but, thats it.

Only some green star polyps and monti cap coral wise as I get readjusted.. there’s 2 clowns, a blue jaw trigger, a coral beauty, along with two gobies and a pistol shrimp as a partner in there..

In the past I’ve also had planted freshwater tanks, and housed poison dart frogs for a long time.

I also enjoy a cigar or two every weekend..

Welcome and congrats on your upcoming marriage. You had me at beer

Nope, no "flaming" here! Tank looks fine. I've kept poison darts in the past.
