Hey guys - My name is Ronnie!
I have been in the hobby for about 4 years now, I currently have one tank which is a simple AGA 65 drilled with sump/fuge.
I run; 2 T-5 bulbs, ATI purple plus and Coral Plus, as well as a white/blue LED fixture from my LFS.
Below I have a Skimmer, UV sterilizer, and a 2 Little fishes media reactor.
I test my water give or take 1-2 times every few months. I usually only bother to check if things aren't looking good, or I'm putting in a new purchase.
I dose Alk 2-3 times a week, and do a 10 Gallon water change every month.
My parameters last time I tested were...

Alk: 7.9 Calc: 480 Mag: 1550
Temp: 78*
Salinity: 1.025-1.026

Anyways! It is good belong to a community =)

Yeah the snow this year has been insane... It snowed yesterday - it was only a dusting in the valley but...! I am going to be building a custom 100g into my condo's wall! I can't wait to document it and get started. I want to so a canopy on tracks so I can move the whole thing up to feed and have a door as well so I can get my hands in the tank! Custom stand that's 4-5
feet tall so the tank is at eye level!
