Welcome to Reef 2 Reef

Hello All — Nice to meet everyone. I’ve been a long time reader of R2R but figure it’s time to join the community. First of all, it’s an awesome community and I’ve learned so much about this hobby just by reading everyone’s posts, some are very entertaining btw!

I’ve been in the hobby for 25+ years! Like many of you, I started out with freshwater -> FOWLR -> softies … and now SPS dominated. Obviously I still have a lot more to learn and that’s what makes this hobby very challenging and rewarding at the same time.

My two tanks
1. 150G Cube (36x36x24 + 20G sump)
2. 54G RedSea Reefer

Some old pics of the tanks.

May I address you as Obiwan?
 
Welcome officially to the R2R community @bakbay ! Sounds like I’d learn things from you since I’ve only been reefing for a little over a year!
