I was asked to introduce. I'm Jimmy Bielkiewicz (bell-kay-witch), my lovely bride to be Melissa and I have kept reef tanks for 5 years, and still feel like we are brand new. We started with a 125 gallon 60 pounds of rock and one black box led and never stopped adding. In our 2nd year we upgraded to a 300. We then were offered a smoking deal on a 210 and became a 2 tank home. The 210 became our reef and the 300 a predator tank. Six months in our rays started dieing off at a rate of about 1 a month. The sharks followed, as did the lion fish. We chose to shut down the 300 sold it and used the cash to buy ai hydra 32's. As time went on we greatly missed hand feeding the rays and how excited they get when we walk in the room. A few years past and we decided a big tank with reef and rays would be our next goal. We found a used 675 gallon acrylic at an unbelievable price and in the process of setting that up now. Our plans are to have a breakfast bar down 2 sides of the 6 foot square tank.
