Hi all,

My name's Nick, from Wrexham in Wales (UK). Got myself an EA Reef 1500. Had 2 smaller ref tanks in the last year but this is my first real try at making a 'proper' Reef. I'm still learning, making lots of mistakes but trying to do things right and slowly .. on a moderate budget...

So far I have 4x clowns (2 downed tanks forced the merger), Royal Gramma, 6 line/pyjama wrasse, Regal Tang, Tangerine goby.

2 Anemones, Xenia, Goniopora, GSP, Alveopora, Kenya tree, Green Torch.

This is the easiest set up I could manage and now I will watch it all mature and grow... Hopefully gaining advice and knowledge from all you talented people!

Cheers, Nick.

Good luck bud!
