Just joined the forum but have been keeping saltwater and reef tanks for over 25 years. My tank is a custom built in 135 gallon display reef setup which has been running for close to 20 years. I have a Neptune Apex running everything and keep adding more functions to it. Lights are a pair of Radion G5 x15s.

I'm currently working on building a new sump as the old one is showing signs of ageing after many years in service. I'm trying to improve the design while I'm at it to be more service friendly and fit my current equipment better.

Even though I've been at this a while, I figure I can always learn new stuff which is why I'm here.

It's nice but tends to grow out of control

Same with most of my corals. I am looking to rehome some of the Hammer coral as well.
