I met a great seller today from fb market filled with both rare and non-rare acropora and some other items. Main tank is a IM 200g lit with some MH pendants and reefbrites. In addition, 4 other tanks around the 100g size range. Has been in hobby for 20 years I think.

Blown away at his colonies and equipment. Am I the only one that sees this and scratches my head at how some people seem to have it all? Do you run into people that call themselves average hobbyists but maintain these amazing tanks?

He was cool. Retired and looked no older than 45.
 
It all depends on how much time and money we have on our hands. Priorities also dictate how far down the reefing rabbit hole to go. But it’s always fun to see a candy store.
