So, after working 10 hours a day 6-7 days a week for the past 5 years the covid-19 virus slowed down work enough that I decided to start a reef tank. Technically I cheated bought a established 40 gallon tank on offer up as a birthday gift to myself. Its been running smoothly since I purchased and install it 6 weeks ago. I can say I am hooked. I upgraded the lights to the xr15 G5, added a DIY chaeto reactor and about 10 frags to the existing rock work/ corals. I am already looking into upgrading tanks hopefully by this month. Glad I found R2R plenty of helpful information on the site as well as people I am excited to join the community.
