my addiction started in aug of last year with an established 20 gallon tank that was fowlr with a couple small coral. Then a couple months lasted I had to have a bigger tank so I bought a biocube32 in hope to bring everything over to it well that didn’t work out as planned as the old lady wanted her own tank so I gave her the 20 and started getting the biocube where I wanted it and ended up finding a nice full setup 40b so I traded the biocube and some cash for the 40b. And along the way I was gifted a little 3.7 gallon nano for the kids and it’s been a great journey so far and look forward to learning everything I can and eventually getting a 120 and consolidate everything into one cause I’m the main person who takes care of these tanks and although I love it it can be over whelming at time but it’s a great addiction none to less well let’s get to the setup shall we:
