Found a few faded 35mm pictures of my 50 gallon reef 1995. Diy lights vho t12s, huge diy recirculating protein skimmer, kalkwasser drip powerheads for circulation, a whole bunch of florida live rock.
Was awesome, plus to speak to the diver who was going to pick it out was a experience. Literally pick up at the airport in the evening rock that was in the ocean in the morning, 150 lbs plus live sand, tank had been cycled with house hold ammonia a ehiem canister filter filled with dolomite, some dolomite gravel, and a chopped up shrimp. had very little die back, after a month removed the ehiem.
