WOW... where to start
It has been a long time since ive been a active member... mostly because my tank has been hands free for the last 5 years.
But... unlike paul i was unable to keep it hands free for ever
although in retrospect its good because its all working out for a better cause
So this is where I stand:
i have a build thread somewhere (you can find if you want to assist) but basiclly the story is as follows.
I started with a 30g which turned in to a mixed reef(probably my sig)
that went to a 75 with a 40breeder for a sump...
i moved out of my parents house with my girlfriend (which turn to wife) with that 30... to our fire house we rented.. they turned to a 75 we stayed there for 5 years (all tank life accounted for)
We had a son... Things in the tank started to take a beating
we bought a house, moved the tank things went good for a while...3-4 years...
we had a 2nd kid the tank took a hard hit.. years on no maintenance surprisingly did very well but when the choice was made to redue the floor the tank had to be broken down..
so ...
I purged the 75... almost 90% of the rock for a fresh start
was able to recover and save most of the coral i wanted back in to the OEM 30g
How do i do pictures now that photobucket is shot?
