Hello Everyone,
Very nice site you have here.
My name is Steve and I am a Tank-A-Holic.
Well at least my wife thinks I am.
It started about 3 weeks ago when I got the itch to try a Saltwater Tank again. The last time was 8 yrs ago and it went well for a few months and then everything die within 1 day.
Well, I have to admit that I knew NOTHING back then and with the advent of these online forums, I still admit to knew very little, but love the vast knowledge that is available to prevent a disaster like last time. :cry:
I started with a 29 gallon tank. Then I won the bid on a 110. Then I won the bid on a 55. Then I bought another 55. Then I bought a 20H. Then I was given a 70. Then I bought another 29 and lastly and only 2 days ago, I bought a 150. So I guess you might agree with the wife that I am a Tank-A-Holic :xd:
I have one 29 set up with live sand, live rock and a few fish. Of course the grand kids (and me) had to have 2 clowns (Nemo). We also have a yellow tank and a couple of damsels.
The other 29 is holding the 100 lbs. of live sand and 80 lbs. of live rock that came with the 150 when we broke it down. That is a lot of sand and rock in a 29. But there is also a Maroon Clown and a Hawk Fish in there that were in the 150 when I bought it. We saved enough water from the tank to set the 29 up for instant success. The fish have lots of hiding spaces.
I am presently cleaning the 150 and getting ready to drill it for the "BEANANIMAL" overflow setup. I have a wet/dry w/ skimmer setup that came with the tank and I am going to add one of my 55's as a refugium. I might have to rebuild the stand to get it in there.
Well I have rattle on long enough. Thanks for listening and enjoy your tanks!
Steve
