Hello All,

I've been keeping saltwater for quite a while. This tank was a saltwater, trying to be a reef tank, started in 2000. It failed miserably but I kept trying til 2003. It was then broken down and became a heavily planted, CO2 infused freshwater tank. Beautiful and my husband's dream tank. We divorced and I took the tank. I then realized that I missed my saltwater and restarted it in December of 2008. I've done a lot of research and am trying to do it right this time around.

Tank Specs

Lighting: Aquatinic's T5X 5 bulb T5 fixture with individual reflectors
Filtration: Sump containing Purigen, and a skimmer, ~60 lbs of live rock
Circulation: Return from the sump and a korelia 2
