Country: United States

Description: About 2.5 years old. 440 watts VHO, 175 MH @ 14K, 10 gallon WalMart tank as sump, Euro-Reef skimmer stuffed in the sump, MAG 5 return. 75 pounds of LR, 4 inches of coral sand, SPS, LPS, and some softies and native reef fishes.

Advice: Reading is most important. Stick with the hobby and you will be rewarded with great success. Water changes are great. Do them often. Bi-Weekly is great!

Corals/Plants: I love millipora and montiporas, hammers, and touch corals, mushrooms, GSP.

About Yourself: I started this tank when I was 18 and I really got into the hobby. Doing most things DIY because I am young and I do not have a lot of money. Sand is second hand and I have no reflectors. The Halide is from eBay and it is ghetto. It is a DIY masterpiece. I will continue on my love for this hobby forever.
