I put together a 125 gallon tank dropped in 100 # of live sand and 150# of live rock Set up the fliter and light and realized that half the lights weren't working - coralight 4 bulb setup Someone gave me a watermellon and kenyan tree. I dropped them in and they did fine NEXT, I bought a pair of 225 LED blue and white panels and set them up on top of the tank <about 2 inches from the glass. The watermellon is HUGE - bigger than ever! The Kenyan Tree is almost as big as before. So, I’m new to the saltwater aspect of the hobby.

Me and my friends still share things that grow in our tanks, but maybe that's because we have real jobs and don't live in our mommy's basement. Boooooooo to the people who try to earn a living selling things that live in our oceans at ridiculous prices. wow…it seems that true hobbyists have been knocked out of the trade by vendors who see the chalices as an excellent way to make a living off of reefers.
