Hello from Florida- New to Reef2Reef

[tbaum101]

Just wanted to say hello and show a Pic or two. I was in the hobby in the mid to late 90's. Had to move a few times in rapid succession after I graduated college and I eventually list everything in the tank one night. Things have changed so much since then...it's not even the same thing anymore. I put water in my tank Christmas Day 2023. Have had a couple of AHEM...Learning opportunities since then but I'm back to what could be called loose stability at the moment. This has been an instant obsession. Nice to be around like minded people in a world gone insane.

Indeed...I remember dosing Calcium but had no idea why or how much I was supposed to. Maybe there was something else...but again...I didn't have testing equipment. The lights were pretty awesome though. Coral selection was polyps, bubble coral, some plating coral with polyps...a few others...But they were pretty much never going to grow. I'm amazed at what can be done now

Just try to keep all your parameters in range and you will be great.

...And that would be my 1st learning experience! Lol. I've finally got things stable and predictable as far as daily dosing requirements. Looking at doses and system automated controls/tester. Really liking the HYDROS system so far. Been researching like crazy (making my wife a little crazy as well). So much to learn!
