    Hey guys just joined up today thought i would throw some pics of the tank up that i just started. Well i set it up on the 26th and heres what i have so far...
    20lbs sand
    13lbs LR
    6lbs BR
    2-T5 24w lights ( I know its not enough, but they were free ha)
    Some small filter inside that i am using towards the top to get some type of a flow.
    My Koralia Nano 425 powerhead should be showing up anyday now. And i might also add a 240 Nano we shall see.

    Welcome to 3reef!

    I just started here myself and so far it's a great place for advice and counsel. :D

    May we ask what your plans are for this tank?

    How wide is your tank? I don't know what you budget looks like but I have this brand which isn't bad for the price.

    It is 30inches so that would fit, but as of right now my budget isn't that great. My mom just got me this light set up for christmas since she knew i wanted to start a tank up, if only i would have showed her this, well maybe she still has the receipt because i think this is about the same price as what I have.
