Hello!

[Skeleton’s Reef]

Hello there,

My name is Loren. I have been splashing around with fish most of my life, well at least since I was around 10 years old. Had freshwater most of the time, but have been doing saltwater for about 25 years now. I am into the fish only aquarium, aside from maybe a star fish and an occasional crab. I just wanted to talk with other fish keepers an those who decorate with skeleton corals. I’m going to try to upload a picture or two of my 125 gal set up. If anyone would like to chat, send out a message.

Hi Loren! I'm Lisa. Welcome! Glad you joined. Your photos take me back to my FOWLR roots when I was in the hobby years ago... though your photos are much nicer than I had back then. Today most of my tank-intended corals are decorative accents in my office/fish room. I have a tiny bit of my overall coral collection in use in this tank:

Build Thread - 55 gallon Copperband Butterfly Fish Sanctuary Tank

After more than a year, my Copperband Butterfly Fish suddenly found with least 3 bites out of its tail. This was out of the blue. Uncertain who did this in tank, though historically my tangs and flame angel have been Death Dealers... but July 2021 did 3 weeks of acclimation box and rehomed worst...

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)

This might help you find people local to you:

Hi Loren, welcome

Welcome Loren, glad you are here. Your tank looks just like my first when I set it up in the mid 90s and before I switch to live rock and coral, looks great.
