I've been pulling some super valuable information on here for way too long and it's finally time to stop lurking. I'm from San Diego, CA.

I been in the hobby for about 2 years now. I migrated from fresh water. I bought an established 90 gallon reef tank locally for a really good price. I've lost fish and frags along the way, it's sad, but a great learning experience.

So far, I've started with 5 or 6 nems and now I'm up to around 10. Mostly a softy tank; my tank doesn't like certain SPS. I've learned to just live without it, though I'd love to figure out what I'm missing. Acan and scolys typically die but plate corals do well. I've ran through every parameter, and trace element, and flow, but everything in the tank seems happy now.
Nice meeting everyone!
