Cheers from Canberra, AU

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to introduce myself: I am in Canberra, Australia, and I am about to setup my first home reef tank - a CADE S2 1500.
This will be me first ever marine aquarium at home, but I am a biologist by profession and have some experience with corals, sponges and reefs in general. I have two small tanks at work - a temperate (22C) to house Sycon capricorn (calcareous 'Pineapple' sponge) we collect at the coast, and a newly setup tropical tank (26C) for sponges and corals we bring from the Great Barrier Reef.

Keen to get my build going and learn as I go. I already have the tank, lighting, mat, and skimmer. Just finished building my aquascape from Marco rocks (or at least I think I did) - will post and ask for opinions shortly.

Cheers!
Martin

The more biologists the better. You will appreciate the advice and tips from many on this site. Many posts include literature references and empirical evidence to support them.

If you find a good Aussie Coral/supplier that ships reliably let me know - I’m on the Sunshine Coast about to do the same thing
