What’s going on reefers, my name is Jeff (@mrsaltyfingers) new to R2R but have been in the hobby for 20+ years. 220 gallon all glass aquarium 15+ years old. It is ran on a very Basic wetdry filter(sump) with plastic bio balls, & and built in skimmer. Has been set up multiple different times all because of relocating homes.the most Reset set up was February 1st. Before that the tank sat for over 2 years with 400+ lbs of like rock, no filter just 2 hydra pumps. February 1st I Drained the tank wiped everything down removed all of the live sand, and filled back up with all old live rock and fresh saltwater. My recent upgrades have been 2 mp40, 2 radion g5 blue, a carbon and a gfo reactor, a ato and reservoir. Live stock of 5/26/20 #8 green Chromis, #1 black cap bassiet, #2 dispar anthias #1 Indian Ocean Lyretail & #1 Fiji Lyretail anthias. #3 purple firefish, about 25 blue led hermit crabs, about a dozen Mexican turbo snails, #4 cleaner shrimp, #5 different top end acan lords, about 25 different zoas, a glue bug Blasto, cranberry echinata, Jason fox redneck Favia, wwc space monkey Favia, PPE Favia, #1 chillyWilly ricordea. In the process of getting a new tank built and going to start a new build thread soon. Thanks reefers.

Welcome to R2R and the wonderful folks, information and help.
Patience, it is the big word around here, Reefing is patience to cycle, to watch things grow, to keep your tank balanced.
I recommend to everyone joining to create a tank build thread. Good to see you already are planning for that.
1. You get to see where you have started and how much you have grown in this hobby.
2. We love pictures and to see what your doing with your tank.
3. It’s a great learning tool for all of us to see what works and doesn’t . We learn great stuff from each other.
Lastly the only bad question here is the one not asked...
