Hey guys, new around these parts.
I’ve been Ive the hobby for a few years, maybe going in 5 now? And always loved larger tanks.
Started off with a 55 gallon that failed miserably due to lack of knowledge, then upgraded to a 150 tall which was a bit better. But decided it wasn’t big enough, so went to a 300! That one went good, till moving day. So I sold it and went to a biocube temporary till we settled down. Fast forward 2 years, and I was ready to upgrade. Over the last 6 months I bought all the top of the line equipment, and a 250 gallon custom tank from concept aquariums. But the wife didn’t know, until I brought the tank home. Her response was “that’s not going in my house”.
2 months later, we came to a compromise on a Red Sea reefer 425xl, and that’s where the story stops for now.
Here’s a link to my build thread on the Redsea, feel free to follow on the journey! It should hopefully be interesting: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/red-sea-425xl-upgrade.640887/#post-6405004
Here’s some pictures of my tanks over the years:
