    I've been a lurker for the better part of nine months, reading and learning about marine aquariums in an attempt to setup my own. I have to say, this forum is one of the best resources I've found for learning. Anyways, I've setup my tank and let it cycle for a few weeks, added two clown fish 20 lbs of live sand and 20lbs of live rock a few months ago. Hermit crabs, black snails, and a myriad of hitchhikers have taken their place in my tank and all seems well. I've had one death in my tank a month or so ago when an anemone fell asleep on the heater and cooked itself. I found him a few hours after he did that. I'll post pictures of my initial setup after this post.

    Anyways, I wanted to drop a line and say Hi!

    Thanks for the welcome.

    This was my initial setup. Only around 9lbs of live rock here. I've since added quite a bit more.
