Hi everyone, I recently opened an account with R2R after hours of reading through threads. I started my first reef tank in 2015 after a friends son was going off to college and was looking to sell the tank. It is a reef ready 50 gallon tank with a 20 gallon sump. I had previously kept African cichlids for a number of years but had sold all my tanks and equipment in 2013 prior to a major home reno project. The tank is currently jam packed with lps/sps corals. I purchased a used 220 gallon reef tank this winter and plan on moving everything over this summer after I build a stand and cabinet for the system. I really enjoy the site and find the overall "tone" to be helpful and respectful. Thanks everyone for making this site what it is.

Welcome to R2R Rich and thanks for signing up. I'll be the first of many to ask to see some pictures of your tank. Good luck with the upgrade as well.

Thanks Zhenya, The forum has and continues to be a huge source of information and inspiration. I'm planning on a mixed reef. I have been slowly purchasing all the pieces over the last year. I think I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel

Ontario, Canada. After spending 2 hours outside tonight working on the tractor snow blower, I wish it California lol. Then again you would probably scoff at the snow we have on the ground. I saw you guys got her pretty good this winter. My wives from Bonne Bay and my daughter in laws from Pollard's Point btw.
