    Hi - I am new to 3reef, but not new to reef aquariums. I've had a 90 gallon aquarium for about 12 years. I have had star polyps and mushrooms, but want to expand to more advanced reef keeping. Slowly - I want to start out with the 'easier' corals and slowly make my way up to the successfully keeping the 'hard' stuff. Probably not the 'really' hard stuff, but those corals that require more care. Please excuse the technical terms.

    I have upgraded my lighting to T5's - 4 10k and 4 actinic. I have a refugium (CPR hob). Right now I only have star polyps and mushrooms, but will being my research on exactly which corals I would like to keep.

    Anyhoo - that's just a little about me. Thanks for listening.
