Hi all,

I'm new to the site, I saw a post about this site on another reef forum and thought I'd check it out. I've been into reef tanks for 2 years now and I have a 40 reef tank which I'm in the process of upgrading to a 120 oceanic reef ready. I also have a few frag tanks that I keep items for sale in. I'm really interested in learning as much as possible about reefkeeping (that's why I keep registering at all these reef forums!). Love what I see so far and look foward to chatting with you.

Kevin

Welcome to the site. Hope we can answer any reef or other tank/fish questions you might have. I have to say, I am at least a little bit jealous that you're setting up a 120g tank. Aaahhhhh...someday.....

As everyone has said before WELCOME

Trust me, everyone here is extremely polite, and welcoming and are always willing to help people with any questions I've been here for quite a long time now I guess, and the people here are absolutely amazing from tank setups to how fish breed

This forum is a great place to be and I love this place I spend a lot of my free time going onto this forum, and raising my fishes other than that, I have a busy life to get to xD

WELCOME to the site!!!!

 

[kevo220]

thanks for the welcomes everyone. I've been checking out the other fourms, especially the for sale theads. As I said I'm upgrading to a larger tank and looking for used equipment to make the transition a little easier on the wallet and also to save more money for the real fun stuff CORALS!!

Here are a few pics of my tanks:
This is my basement shop

This is a 240 gallon DIY tank I made out of plywood and pondliner the light system above are 4 400w Icecap halide pendents with 2 20k and 2 14k bulbs. They are on an agramover moving track system they make a full back and forth cycle in 3 min:

The sump for the 240 tank:

top views:

This is a 4 20 gal long system that was intended as a quarantene system but I often run out of room and keep some stuff in it long term. I have 4 icecap t5 bulbs on each row. I use 2 420nm bulbs and 2 14k bulbs on each:

My work bench:

This is a 200 gal system with 2 20 longs, a 55 gal on the front and a 70 gallon pond tank All kinds of different lighting on these the 20 gals I have icecap 20k 150w bulbs and keep chalices and echinatas in them, the 55 and the 70 is currently a holding area for my friend's corals and fish. He moved and is still designing a 250 gallon custom in wall tank system. Hoping he will get it up soon! I am setting up his 95 wave tank and his 75 tank as show tanks soon:

I sell lots of different stuff from these tanks. Check out my photobucket link to see what I have. I order new stuff every 3 weeks or so, so check back often.

Wow, all I can say is I am so jealous. My wife would kill me, and then divorce me if my basement looked like that.
