About Yourself:
I have been a hobbyist since the Age of 4 years old. I am now 31 years of age as I continue to grow my knowledge of our worlds most intriquing life form. I am co-owner and CEO of Orange County Reef Aquatics in Orange County California
However I am not here to promote myself or my business I genuinely love to chat amongst other hobbyists. Especially new hobbyist who need that little extra pusht to get started.
Fish Kept:
I will include their names, that I've given them to make this reading that much more fun, in brackets next to them; some have not been named . Don't laugh either, these are actually my pet names for them :)
My clean up crew include the following;
Blue Leg Hermits
Nassarius Snails
Turbo Snails
Red Hermits
1 Green Urchin (Splke Lee)
1 Diamond Goby (Adobe)
1 Lawnmower Blenny (Bernie)
1 Black Combtooth Blenny (Phantom)
My fish include:
2 Blue Atlantic Damsels (Marina & Lil Bit)
9 Green Chromis (Kibbles N` Bits)
4 line Wrasse (Rascal)
1 Black rock crab...original a stow away; he grew on me, so I kept his butt. (Louie)
My aquarium also accomodates an abundance of copepods in various different species; along with some Bristle Worms...the bristles are not so highly desired by me, but they too also help in the ecosystem cycle. For the beginners use caution the Larger Bristle Worms can sting.
Corals/Plants:
1 brown feather duster (Bob Marley)
1 Blue/Purple Maxima Clam (Virgina)
1 Crocea Clam (Clementine)
***Mulitples of Pink Waving Hand, Thick Stem
(Xenia sp.) after it divided and spread (Jasmine)
5 Green Striped Mushroom
1 Red Mushroom
2 Flower / Ricordea Mushroom, Purple
1 Green Pogada Coral LPS (Goat Tee)
1 Pink Flowerpot Coral LPS (Babe)
Several Green Seamatt Coral Polyps
For my Zoanthids, I have the following colors in various locations throughout the Aquarium, they are all attached to large pieces of Live Rock:
Blue, Green, Orange, Pink, and Light Brown
My newest additions include the following: They are all very small, aquacultured frag cutting grown and glued to plugs.
1 Pocillopora Frag
1 Button Polyp Pink Frag
1 Pink Tip Tricolor Acropora Frag
1 Rusty Pink Millepora Frag
1 Cranberry Tip Acropora Frag
1 Orange Plate Coral Frag
Also there is several small tube work like small polyped feather dusters that have muliplied and are actually quite beautiful in mass quantities. They were originally also stow aways that came in on my live rock.
Tank Size:
90 gallons
Advice:
Research and read up on what you plan to keep; take a look at what your budget can afford you. Very Important... Ask a lot of questions to more advanced and skillled hobbyists, they love to share their knowledge, it's one of the best parts; Most of them will route you in the right direction for a successful reef aquarium!
