Just stopping by to say hello, meet some fellow reefers, and to gain/give some knowledge. I'm new to reefing and have a tank going for about 4 months. I've watched all the BRS 5 minute videos and multiple others before I started. One thing I could not do right away was be patient. I immediately wanted that beautiful mixed tank with vibrant high end corals but learned very quickly why they said be patient, wait for that stable tank! I've already battled dino's and cyano and I'm at the end of beating them now. Anyways I've grown to be more patient and dialed back adding new corals and taking care of the softies and 2 lps I have now until parameters under control. I currently have a ProStar 90 aquarium, 65 display. Running a bubble magus curve 5 elite, 2 nero 5's, 2 radion xr15 blues, vectra return pump. I have 1 yellow tang, 2 snowflake clowns, 2 blue/green chromis, cleaner shrimp and some CUC. I do have 1 issue and will post that in the appropriate section. Have a good one.

Isle of Wight? Isn't that in the English Channel? What a fascinating place to call home. How do you get to the mainland? (I shall resist the urge to make a swimming the channel joke here.) Ferry? Living on an island must have it's share of wonders ... like I wonder who I can online order my supplies from?
Thank you for joining! Welcome to the salty family....
