Old school reefer here

fishybudguy · Jun 25, 2021

Just wanted to thank you for allowing me to be part of this amazing group of fish and coral lovers. My background consists of about 30 yrs in the saltwater aquarium hobby. I am old school on my beliefs and I love metal halides lol. Just finished my new build, it’s a 500 gallon display with a 200 gallon sump. I do mostly lps but have a soft spot for my giant old green toadstool. I’ll try to post some more pics of my current and last build but I’m a little slow with technology and forums. Once again thank you and have a great day

Hopefully you can teach this new schooler a thing or two?

Main thing is remember nothing happens fast in this hobby, so be patient

Welcome! Love the metal halides as well, just can't afford the electric bill and dealing with the heat generated. Looking forward to the photos. We all love photos.

Welcome!

Glad you joined. Metal halides do bring a very natural look to tanks, though I no longer have any
