well i figure i would give this a try.......been reef keeping for just about 2 years now...i first started with a 55 dt with sand bottom & 55 3-section sump.....5 months later i had upgraded to a 75 (and removed sand bed)added a 25 frag tank.......1 year after start i removed the 25 frag tank and switched with a 40b. 1 month later brittany (the girlfriend) wanted a seahorse tank so i plumbed my old 55dt into her seahorse tank with deep sand bed...i have got her just as hooked as i am with the coral fragging, tank tear downs, NSR meetings & PSAS meetings,.....
For the first year i had my struggles with figuring out what i can keep alive on my exp. level and what i would have to send to my buddies tank for them to resurect..i currently have a large selection of sps & some lps...i have my system down in the basement( cement floor) so the minor floods i have created have not harmed anything...

Hmmm...Not sure on the videos. If you go to the large tank forum and look at Jim's build (Gimmito's 450L shaped display) he somehow gets his videos to upload here. Maybe he can give you a hand.

Very COOL DJ, you have definitely caught a severe case of Reefer-itis. Way to go Bud!

Cheers, Todd

Very nice set ups. Look forward to seeing more of you set ups. Do you have any plans for future seahorses in the stable?

Cheers,
Alex
