    Hey all. Finally decided to join after stalking the site for a while lol. I am very new to saltwater but not new to fish keeping. My 75 gallon has been set up around 6 months now. I added a few pictures. Any input would be awesome and maybe some suggestions! I am running sumpless right now but I am planning on moving the tank to the living room and want to add my sump then. Still trying to figure all that out tho! Thanks.

    Make sure you join a region so you can get in on regional meetings and swaps. Meetings are where you put a face with a username and can even get a helping hand after some times. I remember when I joined and remember all of those that have helped me and I am always there when they need something cuz I know they'll do the same thing for me again in the future. Good luck with the move and getting that sump running! o btw where the pics? We need something to drool over!!!

    setup is 75 acrylic tank. running a bak pak temporarily until I can get the sump up and going and I will figure something better out. but currently running water through a fluval 306 that's running no media. also have two 500 gph and 1 3200 gph circulation pumps running. that has really helped. around 50 lbs live rock and same amount of live sand. this is my first ever saltwater tank. i knew nothing about it but I am definitely becoming a little obsessed with reef stuff! oh and lighting is 260 watts of power compacts with led moonlights... and I guess I am just too tired but where is the insert pic? Keeps saying to add a link? IDK I bet I figure it all out in the morning!! nite

    I remembered after I woke up that I could use photobucket. I added a few pics to my album. I think they are viewable. Please give me some ideas and let me know what you think. I live in earlham. Anyone close?? And I might be a bit slow. I'm on my way to colorado as we speak to enjoy some getaway time. First time there! Thanks guys. And this is the best site by far. Love that no one seems to have an attitude problem on here.:)
