    Hi. My name's Stan. I live in the reef capital of the world...Chicago. REEF_GURU introduced me to 3reef & I'm glad he did. I got lots of useful information from some of the threads. I recently picked up a sweet deal on a 29 gal. Bio-cube & stand. I plan on setting up about Jan. 7 or so. I had converted my 44 gal. pentagon tank to salt water in mid Nov. 2008 and got hooked. No reefs or live plants because of poor lighting (2-18w), Aquatic pro 75 wet/dry filtration with matching protein skimmer. 2 clowns, a blue tang and a yellow tail damsel. Also had a longnose butterfly and a choc. chip starfish, but they fell victim to the "ann spike".
    I don't have any pictures on my PC to upload yet, but when I do, I will.
    Stan

    Hi Stan, glad to have you here. You will find (practically) everything you need for success. Will wait to see your pics....o.k. where are they? Just kidding, but I really enjoy seeing what others are doing with their tanks.

    True, but the more I read, the closer I'm getting to my hot glue gun and FAKE corals. I spent about a grand on my saltwater set-ups so far and my wife is ready to divorce me.
