    Hello my name is Chris, from Colorado just starting to get to where I can turn my rescued fish only setup into a reef tank, had a friend that was moving out of state and abandoning his 90gal setup so I went and moved it on my own, what PITA. any how got it all moved and had a lot of issues at first lost a bunch of corals do to a bad setup to begin with, now is better with some help from the LFS. but I want to get to where I enjoy the tank. It has 2 main inhabitants a snowflake eil and and a tomato clown, the snowflake is about 24" long and the clown is as big as he going to get, I will post picks soon.

    welcome to 3reef! Sounds like you are on your way to enjoying the hobby of reefkeeping! You may want to put some thought into whether you will keep the two inhabitants that you have. From what I've read, eels can be messy eaters and that will make keeping parameters needed for a reef difficult. Tomato clowns are very aggressive and may make it difficult for you to add additional livestock.

    Well guys thanks for the warm welcome right at the moment I am kind of stuck I need a better filter be for I go any further, I want to go refugium but not sure who, I like ADHI for the layout of the refuge 45 dual inlets is nice, but trigger systems is also up that way as well. Any thoughts? at this piont i will move this to the filters thread.
