    Like 2 years ago, I was into saltwater. My mom had a great 150gal. Show. However, the whole thing was way under par, equipment wise. Recently, I got a 75 gal. of my own. Luckily my mom ended up tearing that tank down after I moved out a couple years ago. She gave me a great bio-filter/sump system. About 3 weeks ago I briefly went absolutely insane to the tune of $1,200.

    -New Current Extreme T5

    -A few pounds of live rock (stole about 100lbs. in the dead of the night from my moms tank which was still cycling about a foot of water)

    -New overflow box

    -All-glass canopy's

    -Two Koralia v3 PH's

    -more...

    All in all I'm really happy to be back. We're almost on week 3 and my g/f is learning how to ignore the gurgle of the overflow box.

    We just added two damsels, they're doing fine. Actually they got caught in the overflow box and were assumed MIA for 3 days.

    I'm going to need lots of help from you guys and gals. This should be fun!

    Peace!

    Welcome to the board. I just joined recently also and I've learned a lot. Sounds like you're off to a great start. Be sure to post up pictures of your tank and keep us updated.
