Hello All! I have been In the hobby for many years and I am located in Thomasville NC and have had an account for a long time, but have never participated to much on R2R other than stealing everyone else's ideas and implementing them into my own tanks (sorry). I have always participated in local forums and personally I have noticed that my local forum seemed to "die off" and are not as active as they use to be. A few months ago I decided to try and involve myself a bit more on the local forum and today I tried to create an account on R2R and noticed I already had an account that was created several years ago...
A little about my tank:
I currently have a 60 cube that was set up 2 years ago when we bought our new house. I knew I wanted a larger tank but was unsure which route I wanted to go, I have had many other tanks from 220 gallons to small biocube and I just didn't know what size I wanted and I found a heck of a deal on the 60 cube so went ahead and set it up knowing I'm going to upgrade in the future. I have had nothing but headaches with this tank, mainly a busy life and poor husbandry on my part but here recently it has turned the corner and is thriving, it is a mixed reef w/ mostly LPS and some SPS but I have been thinning the LPS down to get ready for the new 90 SCA Build which I will Start a Build thread for later. Lighting is a 6x24 ATI Sunpower, has a custom 3 compartment acrylic sump that holds roughly 20 gallons of water, return is a Waveline DC2500, and circulation pump is a Maxspect Gyre XF130, GHL 2.1 SA 4 head doser dosing ESV 2 part and vinegar, Skimmer is a Eshopps Axium 160, and I run a BRS single Reactor with Premium Aquatics Bulk GFO, also use a BRS 5 Stage RO/DI unit, and Red Sea Blue Bucket Salts. My Main Complaint with the 60 Cube is there is no space in cabinet under tank, and will not be a issue with new build!
I look forward to being apart of the this great community on R2R!
