Well it's about time i decided to begin my new adventure and do this thing properly! (by that i mean reef keeping). reef tanks have always fascinated me from an early age ever since i can remember, i loved the ocean and all things in it especially the hobby's that revolve around it ie fishing. I had many types of tanks including an estuary fish stocked 3 footer when i was a teenager. It didn't last long back then i had undergravel filters, no power heads and a a skimmer was someone that took some cash out of a till when none was looking

System Objectives: What is the end result going to be?
When i got married my lovely wife purchased an aquaone 3 foot all in one unit for a surprise prezzy, and so far it has taken to the stage where i now want to go to the next level and start a SPS dominated reef tank.
