neoh's 77g lps/softie reef

[neoh]

Hello everyone!

I've been in the hobby for quite some time, and this forum for quite some time, and I've always been a planted tank enthusiast. Once I was finally able to master the planted tank (which took years) I converted to cichlids (Tanganyikans) - though I've always had a soft spot for marine. I've always been way too afraid (and financially not able to) keep saltwater. I've always been a lurker on Canreef, and have had small but unsuccessful nano tanks in the past.

But now, It's finally happened.

I've been keeping my marine tank for awhile now, and haven't posted pics - through consult, I was told to put a journal together, as I would love to pick brains and get more involved with fellow marine hobbyists.
