Hi all,
I'm a long time reefer who started in the hobby before the internet and have a healthy background in Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Marine Sciences.
I'm a keen DIY'er and prefer the hands on approach rather than relying on tech gadgets to do the work and love making my own equipment.
At the peak we had 6 marine tanks running, all different biotopes, but have now streamlined everything 3 weeks ago into a single 8 foot mixed reef system and a bedroom nano.
Certainly don't know it all but happy to share what I do and always open to learning new stuff.

Welcome to R2R! Wait, the internet hasn't always existed?! XD
I'm pretty sure I joined R2R back when it all kicked off but can't for the life of me remember any login details so started again
