Just thought I would drop in and say hello. I am from Northeast Wisconsin and been in the hobby for about 6 years now. I have my ups and downs and get frustrated but am always able to re-kindle the passion for the hobby and the tanks.

Little bit about my system. I have a 120gallon All-Glass tank for my main display tank. I cut out the solid black support in the middle and added a clear acryclic piece instead as to not have any shadowing. Lighting my tank I have a 200w 27" LED fixture which has been really cool to have and seems to be doing good growth wise. I have two dual powerheads on each side of the overflows for flow. These are cheap Chinese pumps that I have been running for 2 yrs now with no problems what so ever and they move a ton of water. They are easily disguised due to where I have them next to the overflows so it works good. As for the tank itself its a mixed reef with mainly LPS as SPS and I have a love/hate relationship. I have a pair of Maroon clownfish, McCosker's Wrasse, Bicolor Blenny, firefish, and Melanarus Wrasse I just picked up this week. (However the melanarus is now MIA and I am hoping he is just hiding, was there last night now this morning can't find him) This all drains into my basement. The overflows are split into two different tanks. One goes to a 90 gallon Oceanic (the old school one with thick ole glass and no center brace) This is basically a "Banned" fish tank and liverock. I take in fish people are trying to get rid of instead of allowing them to flush them and then when someone is looking for one I move it on to someone else. The other tank is my fuge/trigger tank. This is a 150 gallon tank which is also an old school thick glass tank with no center brace. This is where all my macro is and in here I also house an Undulated Trigger that was abandoned for whiping out a guys whol FOWLR tank of livestock including and eel. Both of these tanks then drain into a 150 gallon stock tank which houses my skimmer. I run a DDNW-250 Ocotpus skimmer, a GEO 612 Calcium Reactor, and 2 BRS Media reactors. One contains Carbon and the other GFO.

Any questions don't hesitate to ask.
