Hi, my name is John and I have been in the reefing hobby for about 15 years. Current system (15 months old) is a 180 gallon saltwater set up with mostly LPS and an assortment of reef safe fish (Foxface Rabitfish, Yellow Tang, Hippo Tang, Anthias (4), Chromis (4), Mandian Gobies (2), Clown Fish (3), various clean up crew. I manage the system with Neptune Apex including remote located automatic water change and fresh water station, Aquamax Skimmer, Bio media reactor with BIO Pellets, WAV powerheads, Kessil A360x (3). Love this forum! Best that I have found in the many years of searching out reliable reefing information/sourcing on the internet!

Hi John and Welcome! Glad you joined.

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). Your 180 gallon sounds awesome!

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:
