Hey every one just thought id share some about my tank and make a location for futer updates and such.
I started this hobby with a 55g as most of us do and i quickly ran out of room and discovered my true calling, SPS corals.
I had heard they where a challenge but i pride myself on taking on any challenge i see worth in. the colors and growth patterns where mesmerizing and i had gotten into this hobby after growing bonsai trees for 3 years ( feel free to ask questions im a wizz at it). i missed the branching forms from my other hobby and went from having a green thumb to a wet one. i started my research and im just now through some trial and error getting to fully understand the mechanics of it all. it took a little while but i managed not to kill every thing i own (though i did try very hard sometimes haha) its still got to mature alot but its on its way to greatness.
