New here, but a member of several other forums. Have been in the hobby for 2 years now after my brother in law (then room mate) decided to switch from fresh to salt and talked me into setting up a tank too. Started with a jbj 3 gallon picotope that got crowded quick, then a 10 gallon that lasted a little while before i finally upgraded to a 40 gallon breeder with a 20 gallon sump. Recently downgraded, so i could have a tank that fit into my living room, to a biocube 29 using a lot of the rock and all the livestock from my breeder. I also have a 12" rimless cube that i started once the breeder was going and is still going. Will probably have these 2 systems for a while, though i'd like to upgrade to a 30 or 40 gallon shallow cube in my living room (i need a 24 x 24 footprint or smaller) next year sometime. Both of my tanks are mixed reefs with the bc being SPS dominant and the little cube being softy dominant. I will make threads for each of my tanks soon. But for now, here are some pics, enjoy!
