Hi Guys
Greeting from Indonesia.

I sign up to R2R around few years back, but mostly just became passive member.
I believe this is my first thread at R2R, CMIIW.
English aren't my primary language, so im sorry if my english not so good.

Im learning this hobby mostly from browsing here and there, asking personally here and there,
Finally i choose to learn from one Indonesian Veteran Reefer, which have beautifull SPS tanks for many years.
His IG : angryfish_katrok_reefer

Im usually post some update at some Facebook Reef Group and also update to my reef Instagram.

My Target for this hobby :
Can keep the same stock of Living Creature (Coral, Fish, Invert) for few/many years.
Can growth SPS. if the SPS have beautifull colour, then its a bonus.
Put/glue the SPS to the scaping rock, and lets its grow at that same spot/place.
Using electricity equipment which using DC power source.
Select & Using Reefing Method / Reefing System which only need less effort for me (less maintenance time, dossing product with good quality but cheaper price, DC equipment with cheap price but have good performace & durability, and so on..).
Take picture each month, and make before-after picture.

Picture from 2019 :
this is when i start nitrogen cycling process.
