Red face Luke is joining today: Hi:-)

Hi everybody. I found this forum/site today as I was searching for various information about reef tank setups. I've been keeping marine tanks for 20+ years and I had a stint with a reeftank about 6 years ago. An algae monster combined with a lack of commitment ruined my reef tank then. I'm finishing up my degree and now have time to give it another go. I want to set this up right this time, so I'll be picking everybody's brain. Thanks.

i say this as my best advice to a beginner. do not,,,and i repeat,,,,,DO NOT look at my tank as an example....i have a well practised eye, decades of experience, and a trunkload of failures to allow me to force the issue and get away with things most cannot~
