    Hi

    I live in southern Indiana and am new to 3reef. I have kept aquariums for a while and reefs for 15 years. Currently I have a 120 gallon sps/lps reef and a 37 gallon reef with bubble tip
    anemones, softies and lps coral.

    The 120 is lit by a 6 bulb T5 retrofit, with a Rio hyperflow 32 for a return.
    There are 4 power heads moving about 8000 gph for flow in this tank. I have about 25 different sps and 15 lps coral in this tank. Fish include 2 tangs, 3 chromis, 3 wrasse, royal gramma (the fish which started this
    obsession 28 years ago) and a coral beauty.

    The 37 has a 250 w DE metal halide and a JBJ pump for it's return. This tank has two rose bubble tips (just fininhed spliting last night, newbie at that) and a green bubble tip. Coral are about 10 different zoo's and leathers, 3 lps and a couple of sps i do not have room for in the 120. Fish include 4 damsels, an algea blenny, flame angel and a purple basslet.

    These tanks are tied togetther with (2) 20 gallon tanks acting as sump/fuge with a Euro reef 80 skimmer. Want are a generator to keep this thing alive when the power goes out.

    Thanks
    Allen
