    Hi,

    Don't have a tank now but will have another down the road. My last tank was a 150 gallon reef tank. The electric bill is why it is not here anymore. Something in the 40 to 50 size will be next. The MH lights and heat and then the chiller took expenses too high. The next tank will stay with fluorescents or maybe LEDs. The tanks are fun!

    The members here are great and loads of information for everyone.

    Thanks,
    Rick

    Welcome to 3reef!

    A 40 Breeder with a T5 light is a great choice. I may be bias since that's what I have ;).

    Thanks for the BIG welcome.

    ****inson, between Houston and Galveston.

    As far as getting another tank I sure wish I had not sold all the testing equipment. Still have a MTC HSA 1000 skimmer and waste collector that is WAY too big for the next tank. Wish I had held onto the demineralizer too. One thing about it, once you learn the basics it is easier to step forward again for the next venture.
