I had a small 55 gallon reef with a refrugium about 30 years ago that was great but gave everything away when I moved. It was primitive by today's standards but it worked. Back then it was nice because you could go to the wholesalers near LAX and the public was allowed to go in and buy at very reasonable prices. It looks like those days are long gone.

The old tank.

About a month ago I started setting up a new RedSea 625 G3. So far, so good.
