    Hello! I am newer to the Saltwater/Reef scene, but have been breeding/selling tropical fish for 10+ years, and as far as freshwater goes, I have housed over 200 tanks (At the same time) in my hatchery... Since I gave up the freshwater breeding business to start life and get married and all that jazz, I have refocused my interests to Saltwater...

    Currently, I have one 125 gallon tank that is built into my living room wall and is currently (like, tomorrow) getting finished for the new home of my Zaire Moba Frontosa colony with other tank mates, which is going to remain Freshwater.

    My current reef projects are small, but nice. I have a 20 gallon tall tank that is home to a few soft corals and polyps and such, as well as a purple pseudo, clown, and blue damsel.

    Last night I just picked up a 46 gallon bow front setup which I am going to move the 20 to. Making my sump and overflow and installing LED lights instead of T5's which will allow me to run a LOT more on the 46 than the 20, and then when that tank is up and doing well I am going to get ready my new 125 gallon display tank for my dining room.

    So, no longer a business person, I am just a hobbyist, and aside from my Frontosa I will probably never go back to freshwater ;D

    This month I am looking to get involved with LEAR and C-Sea, two local reef groups in Cleveland Ohio where I want to learn as much as I can about this exciting new chapter in my fish keeping experience

    Good thing you didn't say refocused to marriage and all that Jazz. This salt thing is addicting!!
