afternoon everyone I'm new to the hobby and I could use some help once in a while so I signed up on here. I've got a new 180g with a 55g sump! (I don't do to much of anything halfway!). I live here in Vernon but I work in van, so every week I go to either ocean aquatics or to J&L. Saves a lot of money, prices are about 40% less in Van. I built my entire set up myself; aquarium, stand, plumbing and about half of my rock.
I currently have 2 percs, 2 types of zoos, a sun coral and a long tentacle anenome. Also 50ish blue legged hermits, 30ish snails(misc) and 2 peppermint shrimp.
Anyway thats me. have fun.
I haven't finished the canopy yet because I built it then decided to change the design. I don't have a shop or anything so I will have to wait untill spring

welcome! just curious as to how long your tank has been running, and how your DIY rock is making out?

good thanks. tank has been a salt water thing since sept 10th ish and I built my rock last march. my rock was under water with changes every week all summer long. I studied this hobby for about 1.5 years before I decided to make my queryium(as my 5 year old calls it.... It fits)

Welcome again!
Hi and
WELCOME
to Canreef.
Going to move the thread to the reefing forum for you. Plus if you wish, you could run a thread in the journal forum, about your tank or if just pics, we have a nice picture forum.
