Reefing newb
Since I just joined the forums, I'll start my own tank forum to track its progress or lack there of. It's a 100 gallon Clear for Life acrylic tank. It is closed on top with two removable access panels. I have it on a wood stand with a wood canopy. I would like to build a platform to raise the tank about ten inches or so. I currently have a refugium with a protein skimmer and crush coral/sand media. I have plants in the refugium and a small clip on fan to help with evaporation. There are two return tubes and one power head for current. I have two Vega Sol led packs but will be buying a third soon. I have a pretty good RO DI water maker, so I can stop buying water. I have had some red algae issues and have treated the tank a couple times in the last three months. I believe it was due to the tap water I was using prior to the RO unit purchase a few days ago. I currently have a few fish and an anemone. I also have a couple small corals to start off. I would like to have a full reef set up someday. I started replacing the artificial coral inserts with base rock and live rock recently. I only have one more insert to replace. $$$$$ is the primary issue. Look forward to sharing experiences and learning from you guys.
