1.5 years (only ). And I may quite if T5s/MH are no longer manufactured (heard that Europe will stop producing T5s by 2015; just heard).

It'll be 3 years in february. Many challenges. The more I know, the less I realize I know. Guess I'm a sucker for punishment. Still love it tho and don't expect to quit any time soon.

Started in 2006 had many tanks learned a lot of lessons and hope to continue to learn. Went for a few months without a tank in this house it was running in the other house while we moved and as frustrating as they are at times we really missed having the fish.

As for reefers disappearing, I think a lot of it is no longer on the website I j ow of a lot of tanks still running and the people left canreef, mostly because of political reasons.

I have 2 Display Tanks in my system.

The 180G was set up in January of 2003 when I moved into my current house.

The 125G was set first set up in 1995 in my old home. When I moved into my current home in January 2003 I moved its contents of the 125G to the new 180G just set up in my new home. In March of 2003 I completed the move of my old 125G by adding it to the display in my new home.

One could easily say that I am in for the long haul.

I got a sea turtle off Ancient Mariner on Fraser st. in Vancouver in 1973 that I raised until it started chasing my 140$ Flame Angel so I gave it to Vancouver aquarium and they raised it to breeding age then sent it to Japan for breeding. It was a Hawksbill and time flys
