This is my little 1 year old Modified Rapid LED Biocube 29 reef tank. This hobby truly is a mental illness, I sold my 75 a few years ago after I was "out" of the hobby, but my wife, unfortunately for her green lighted me for a "small" tank a little over a year ago. Tank just turned one and I am extremely happy with the ease of a smaller tank. Would I like a bigger tank, well...umm...HELL yes I would, but this is working out fine for now.

Welcome to R2R, tank looks great

Sorry it is so washed out, I SUCK at reef photography.

I think we all need help with our reef photography:rolleyes::D I edit my photos and rise the white balance with Adobe light room. Still have not figured out to adjust on the camera yet.

It's cyclical... I started with small tanks, built bigger and bigger, until my in wall 240, years ago. Out of the hobby for a decade, got back in 2 years ago with a 60 cube. Just getting water into my new 140g peninsula.

Welcome back :)

Oh yes, have seen them. Sadly, my alien eye chalice actually stung the platygyra a few weeks ago...it wasn't pretty.

Well, my dear, the chalice kicked the platygyra's ****. No damage to the chalice. And, oh yes, that darn fungia will not stay put. LOL.
