Hello everyone. Starting off on another Reefing adventure. I have been off from this hobby for approximately the last 3 years. Life got in the way and had to pull the plug on my 180 that had been up and running for approximately 5 years which was upgraded from a 135 that had been up approximately up for the same amount of time. Before that I had sometime off again and was in the hobby right after marriage and stayed afloat for approximately 12 years with several different tanks which started in the late 80's. Boy have times changed from then. As of now the reef bug is hitting me once more. I'm 55 years old and hoping this will carry me into my feeble old man years. Lol. Right now I am in demolition mode in my basement where it will house a 150 gallon star fire SCA aquarium Lit by a ATI 60 inch Sunpower with a Reefbrite LED Sidebar addition. I think I have tried pretty much used every kind of lighting out there and for me the T5 route is where I choose to go. So for now I need to get going and knock some walls down and make this happen by Halloween. Thanks for listening and Hello from Iowa!!!
