Hello 3Reef !!

Let me formally introduce myself and my current tanks.

I am Tom, from Rhode Island and I am studying Marine Biology and Mass Communications are the University of Rhode Island

I have had aquariums my whole life and have been into salt water for about 6 years now. I have sold 3 nanos, and two larger builds to friends/co-workers. I have worked at my LFS, and have helped with numerous tank builds !!!

I ALSO own and operate my own breeding/propagation company that is in its earliest stages !! check us out following the LINKS in my signature

NOW THATS OUT OF THE WAY, my current tank life consists of:

A)15 gallon nano that I have had up for about 5 years. It was originally going to be for specifically fragging green star polyps but has since become a working bedside display for my 5 year old ORA clownfish and her new mate, and well as my 5 year old yellow watchmen goby and tiger pistol shrimp.

B)40 gallon breeder which is in the works. SO FAR I have the tank, stand, HOB fuge, Skimmer, Powerheads, Heater, Filter. The light is coming in soon and rock and sand will follow soon after

C)100 gallon breeding system which I am currently building the stand for and is only 10% done so no pics with this yet.

D)5 gallon pico that I just set up to go on my night stand, so I can move the 15 and still have night time reef views lol !!

THANKS IF YOU READ THIS ALL and I look forward to hanging out and chatting with you all

 

best shot to try to show it all off

 

and these give you and idea on whats going on behind the tank

 

these two shots always crack me up

 

anyone with a goby/pistol combo knows they can be camera shy, watch me YouTube video number 7 Feeding Time if you want to see them in action

 

the 5 gallon pico I set up a few weeks ago, I modded the AquaClear so that I could put my heater inside, freeing up tons of room in the tank

 

and then with a splash of rock and the new light. It has coral and fish in it now but I do not have a camera to take pictures until later this week. IN ORDER the pictures are: WHITES, WHITES AND BLUES, BLUES

 

I guess a late welcome to 3reef is in order.


Welcome.
