Hello everyone, My name is Clint and I've been in and out of the saltwater hobby for 6 years now. This past February I recently got back into the hobby. I have a 10 gallon I use as a quarantine tank, a 35 cube with a canister filter I've been experimenting with, and a Red Sea Reefer I'm slowly building. I got the tank stand and sump really cheap, but it didn't have plumbing or any thing else it required to get it going. So I'm slowly working toward buying and building a reliable tank. I've been scrolling through reef2reef for several months now and finally decided to join the community. I see there is lots of knowledge, experience, and lots of amazing builds. All of that has inspired me to get my reefer 250 going. In the past I've had a few tanks with hang on the back filters and skimmers but nothing crazy, they lasted a little while but eventually came crashing down on me for multiple reasons. But now after much more research and finding this group I've been able to be way more successful. Can't wait to start posting some picture (if I can figure that out) and sharing my experiences with you all.

Had to search deep in my phone for pictures of my reefer 250. But this is how it sits now. I just placed an order on Bulk Reef Supply and man did it hurt, but it'll be worth it when it's all done.
