Hello everyone, My name is Erik and I am new (again) to the reefing world. I currently have a 90g DT with a 40g sump. It has been running for a little over 2 months now, and I have an assortment of cuc. For livestock, I have 4 clowns, 1 cleaner wrasse, 1 blue headed wrasse, 2 fire fish, 1 yellow diamond goby with his best friend, the pistol shrimp. I also have a cleaner shrimp too. I have a couple corals: a gsp, japanese willow, a toadstool leather mushroom, and a hammer. All are doing great.

My "again" story. About 12 years ago, I had a 125g (55g sump) full of fish and corals. That thing was amazing and was chock full of corals. Well, I bought an urchin (can't remember what kind) cuz I thought it would be pretty cool and a great addition to my cuc. I did not realize that when it died, it also released some sort of toxin and it killed everything in the tank. Woke up to a scene out of a nightmare. Thousands of dollars gone over night! I was so mad, that I broke it all down and sold it off.

Well here I am again but this time taking things a little slower, doing more research and learning even more.
