Starting From Scratch

[Cuong L]

Hi R2R! Some of you might remember me from BayCorals. Fortunately, in the beginning of the year my Construction business grew so I stepped down from BayCorals to focus on that. But you guys all know, we can never stay away from the hobby for too long. So I am back as a private collector. I will be starting from scratch with a small Solano. Hopefully one day it will look like a WWC show tank!

Enjoy!!!

It's been sitting like that for 3 months now, but it runs on the same cycle with my main tank which is approx 260gallon total. Nothing major in the main tank, just some rockwork, soft corals and fish.
