    Hey all....I'm Kristin. I found this site googling reef forums. :) I am in the planning stages of my first sw/reef tank. I have had freshwater planted (and a few unplanted) tanks for about 6 years, so I have a handle on that. I have always wanted a reef tank but just haven't had the funds to put into it. Now that I'm out of college, I have some money and I'm ready for the challenge.

    I have plans for a drilled 50 breeder with a 20 long sump....with mixed corals. I especially like softies, but I also like variety. :) I will have either 4x39w or 6x39w T5HO over the tank.

    I'm a little nervous about plumbing a sump (and other things), so I'm sure I'll have alot of questions for you guys (and girls)!

    Plumbing is easier than you think.
    You pay for your tank and equipment, and we'll handle the questions.;D
