After a spontaneous purchase with my girlfriend who asked, "Can we get Nemos?" I was thrown head first into the hobby. I had a few freshwater tanks growing up (I also could not keep anything alive for too long), but never saltwater. I have recently added some new live rock and a coral-cabable light. I got my first two frags from a local reefer (Green Nephthea and GSP)
Livetock is currently: 2 Oc. Paired Clowns, 1 Royal Gramma, 1 Cleaner Goby, 1 Turbo snails, 3 Astraea snails, 2 Ceriths snails, 1 Strawberry Conch, 2 Blue Legged Hermits and about 22 pounds of live rock.
Equipment: Hipargero 30W LED Light, Hydor Koralia 240, Aqueon 10 HOB running carbon, Aqueon 50W Heater. I have an EHEIM autofeeder for times I am on break as a college student.
Trials and Tribulations:

Trials and Tribulations:
- Did not top off tank with FW before water changes, slowly raising the salinity to 1.028. Lost a few snails as a result.
- Flukes
