Title: New in Troy, OH
Post by: guynamedfleck on January 27, 2017, 18:08:05: Hello all

I found out about the group at the last aqua swap. Met a lot of great people and picked up a few frags. I started my first tank (14g biocube) about 2 years ago. I just moved and decided to upgrade to a ~50g system in my new home office. I'm looking forward to learning as much as I can from the group and contributing wherever I can!

Welcome how long have you had the 50g up and going?

I started cycling back at the beginning of October, so its still a young tank. It has been a bit of a side project (along with a matching ~90g Fancy gold fish tank) while renovating my new place, so the stand was an interesting build around the running tank. I'll attach a photo of the FW tank.

Crazy to say, but this setup came about rather affordably. Most of the equipment was odds and ends collected over the years as a freshwater guy. The clownfish was rescued from a friend of a friend that sprung a leak in his tank about a month ago. The rest of the livestock and corals came out of my biocube. I just got some new ATI bulbs and introduced a second light this week. The corals are really liking that.

About to launch into a ~2' x 4' x 10" custom frag tank build for the fish room!
