    Hello! I found all of you doing a search on Google for Salt Water test kits. I read a few of the threads here and decided this is a place I need to be!

    I have been away from the hobby for about ten years. At the time I had a 55 gallon reef set up, but I moved to a place that had no room for the tank. I have since moved from there.

    A couple weeks ago I came across a 50 gallon set up that included the stand, canopy, 20 gallon sump, protien skimmer, return pump, and two 65w PCs for $100, a case of beer and an Abba Zabba bar. I jumped on it.

    I have it all cleaned up, added water and 4" of live sand two weeks ago. Last night I added 50lbs of Live Rock. I need to start testing the water and give it a little while till I add any fish. In the meantime I have ordered two more 65w Power Compacts and will do some rewiring of the canopy.

    Pics will be coming.
