Short story to start things off. I started learning about reefing while I lived in Henderson NV and joined my first club LVVR ( Las Vegas Valley Reefers ) in 2005. After a divorce I moved back to the Bay Area and started a 29G Bio Cube and joined BAR ( Bay Area Reefers ) in 2011. As funds got better I was in Aquatic Collection in Hayward and was looking at buying a 45G cube but knew that I wanted something bigger when I said that one of the owners said “ we are selling our DT “. An hour later I came back and bought the set up. They kept all the fish and corals. Now I think this build will not be very interesting to some of you. I believe in keeping my systems very simple. Nothing special other than a protein skimmer. It started off as a mix reef but now it’s mostly sps. I have another 200G that will be mostly LPS ( my wife likes corals “ that move “ ). So this system has 3 radion gen 2 lights , reef octopus skimmer , sump holds about 120g , vectra M1 return , and jebao powerheads. Tank has been up and running for alittle over a year now and doing very well
