Hello from Toronto, Canada

Hi
I'm new to saltwater since January. I've had freshwater tanks all of my life but I've always been scared of saltwater. Now that I've taken the plunge I wish I had done it sooner. I bought a complete 90 gallon system in January. It was still running when I picked it up. I saved the 3 fish and the corals that were in it. It's a 36x24x24 tank with a 24x18x16 sump. I bought a 6x 39 watt T5HO for it as it came with a metal halide light. Let me know if you have any questions for me.

Thanks everyone. I'm running a 6 bulb 36 inch t5ho tek light now. Colours are ok but almost no growth. Only sps to survive so far is a green slimer. I'm thinking of switching to a 400 watt mh with 4 24 inch t5s. Do you think there will be much difference in heating up the tank? The 6 bulb now is only about 8 inches off the water but the 400 mh will have to be mounted higher to get it to cover 36 X24 X24 inches.
