Greetings from the Jersey Shore

Hello all. I am Drew, and I have a fish problem. Been obsessed with fish and the underwater world in general for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is helping my dad with his 55 gallon tank, and I did such a great job he got me my own tank, with ironically the same maintence schedule. I’m 51 now and have had fish almost all the years in between. I have had nearly everything you can keep in 90 gallons or less in FW, and 3 years ago I began my reef journey. I started with a 24 gallon AIO, then grabbed a 55 corner with a sump off Craigs list, and about a year ago I combined those 2 systems into a 210 gallon system. It still amazes me how different sw is from fw.

Aside from the reef, which is mostly fish and some baby corals, I have a planted and CO2 injected South American system, and an Mbuna system. I live in Ocean County not far from Atlantic City. See you all around…
Howdy!
