New to this forum. I have had my tank for 3 years now and love the hobby more and more. It's been great watching my tank grow and learning how to fix/control all the problems that come up. I have been using reef central but like others decided to give this one a try as well. It seems like it's more my speed, I still ask a lot of dumb questions.

Anyways here's my tank, hoping to install a sump on it in a year or so.

Hi !
Welcome to R2R
I hope you will find a lot of useful information and feel free to ask questions ;)

You have a nice tank! What to do want to do further?

Thanks! The next big step will be adding a sump. It isn't a drilled tank (I am scared to drill it myself) so I plan on getting a HOB overflow box. I will build the sump in my garage, it's on the other side of the wall the tank is on. I will custom build it myself, I can't figure out why sumps are so dang expensive when they are pretty easy to build. I am looking forward to moving all of my equipment out of the tank and having virtually no noise from it. I am also going to plumb my mixing station into it as well to help eliminate running a hose or by using buckets. Right now I made a make shift fuge out of an old penguin filter that is housing chaeto so having an actual fuge is going to be great.
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?
