Just wanted to say hello to my fellow aquarist. I'm a LONG time lurker, finally a first time poster.

I am currently running a newish 4ft 120gal tank and I'm easing into the coral side of things. I was more of a Fowler guy for years on various previous tanks (60 gal, 180 gal, 30 gal aio, 50 gal cube and back to a 120gal) but much like everyone else, Covid changed the game for me, majorly in terms of learning and adjusting to life of running a reef tank (since I had time to learn). So... Long story short, looking forward to meeting, chatting and learning! Photo is of the current 120gal started in March.

Cheers,
Court

Hi and Welcome. Fellow SoCal reefer here. Where abouts are you?
Long Beach area.
Welcome to R2R!

Impressive 120g. Love the choice of fish!
Thanks, I believe in variety. There's a Longnose Hawkfish, Sixline wrasse, striped Blenny and some Cardinal fish somewhere and a evil 'mater female clownfish... Most are migrated fish from the 30 gal and 50 gal I was running.

The Pads are trending in the right direction, so you should be proud to rep them, it's crazy that the NL west is so competitive this year! I'm a LONG way from home, Red Sox baseball is in my blood, I don't know any better!

I've been a Pads fan since I didn't know any better. In years where they do pretty good it feels odd :)
