Hey all,

Im jordan, live in the UK and thought id pop on and introduce myself.

I have a 300ltr (75G?) mixed reef tank thats been running for about 24 months now since my house move and have kept marines for roughly 12 years now. Im a regualr visitor to UltimateReef where i run the Photo of the Month (POTM) competition but thought id expand my horizons and see how things work across the pond.

Ive attached a photos and a few specs of my tank below for interest. Sorry about the quality of the pics. They are the usual phone pics so colours seem a bit washed out day and purple at night.

Welcome to R2R and thank you for the introduction!!! We’re glad you’re here!
 
Hi Jordan, you finally found us, so welcome to R2R!

And I know you run the ultimate reef POTM because I won it in August. Only problem is I can’t enter for a year now, so can’t you change the rules (just for me!?) Lol

You will enjoy R2R is ‘extremely’ active

And the tank looks great by the way!

Infact for those who like pictures here you go, I’m allowed to post it now
