hello all !!

i am new to this site, but have been in the hobby for about 4 years and fragging corals for about 3 1/2 years. i write articles for and also help my friends on another forum (Talkingreef) with podcast episodes on the hobby. i also Co-Host a live call in reefing talk show for the same website. selling and trading frags is what i do to supplement some of the expenses of the hobby.
Oh ... i am also on the frag committee of my local club (Louisville Marine Aquarium Society :: Louisville Marine Aquarium Society).

current setup ...

125 gallon SPS dominated RR display, 200 gallon frag farm in the works (currently a 40b frag tank), 30 gallon refugium, all plumbed into a 100 gallon rubbermaid sump. total water = 405 gallons (when farm is done).

Display ... 3x250w 10k Reeflux MHs and 2x160 actinic VHO supplemental lighting. 6090 GPH of flow.

frag tank ... 2x250w 10k Reeflux MHs

Skimmer is a 1 of a kind Euro reef knock off that was made for MY system, and has the mesh mod on the needle wheel.

Was going through the early postings on the Meet & Greet forum, and came across this thread.

WOW, you are like #20 on the Meet & Greet Forum, having joined in Feb 2008 and still active as from yesterday. How time fly's when you are having fun...

All the best.
