Hello all. My name is Rodger. I'm new to the hobby and thought I'd share my 75G tank :bigsmile: . I'm also a big picture person so enjoy. I'd also like to give a big thanks to folks at UA for all their assistance for helping me with my little piece of the ocean.

Welcome to the hobby

I'll probably see you at UA sometime. Sorry I don't have any frags to offer at this time I am still a newbie as well. Good luck and tank looks great.

Got a new piece at UA yesterday. It is so bright green a swear it glows at night.

That's a gonipora

Ladipyg · Mar 4, 2009

I have one of those goni's ...it's about my favorite coral..it's red with blue mouths. Eats like crazy and I get a lot of extension.
Welcome to R2R...I like your rock set up...you'll need some nice chalices and some clams to fill up some of that sand bed. Looks great! . Is the rocks just sitting there or are they epoxied together?

Very nice!! I like the firefish!!! Mine keep jumping out. I need to make the top that Hyper has. We should see if we can do a bulk buy of that mesh. And perhapse get the framing kits in bulk online also.....maybe save few pennies???

Hypertek99 · Mar 11, 2009

Very nice firefish indeed. I'm surprised my Helfrichi haven't jumped yet as my tank has an open back. Knock on wood.
