Hello.

[bender27]

Just wanted to introduce myself since I just signed up to be apart of mtrc.My name is Chris, and live in shelbyville. I'm not exactly new to saltwater aquariums but still learning a lot. I've had several 29gal tanks before. Currently I'm working on setting up a 90gal mixed reef. Hope to get to know you all and learn some stuff along the way. I wish I could come to the frag swap but I'll be driving back from Florida from vacation.

Welcome to R2R and the MTRC forum!

Too bad you are missing the swap, but stick around here as we have monthly meetings. Im sure something will work with your schedule soon.

Thanks, yeah definitely going to stick around. Hoping to have my tank up and cycling by the end of April. I might be able to talk wife into driving back up on Friday night lol. We get off of cruise Friday morning anyways

dont be too pushy just yet....at least get the tank up and ready before you do that with the wife. LOL

Haha, yes that would be wise. I'm ordering my ro/di and return pump before I leave. I was planning on getting the jebao dc6000 pump for return. Would that be good or should I get the dc12000 and run it @50%?

I would get the larger one and look into manifolds. That way you have the ability to run additional things just from one single pump. I have a dc pump and am currently running 2 reactors and am about to add a chiller. And still can add a 3rd reactor if I ever want to.

That sounds like a good idea, ordering pump in the morning then. I'll try to do a build thread, throw some pics up when I start.
