Hey everyone!
Im new to the Knoxville area and thought I should say hi and what not. I moved down here from Wisconsin a couple of weeks ago with my girlfriend who has accepted a position at the UT, GO VOLS! haha. So far we are loving the warm weather, water ways, and dog friendly atmosphere. Lots to see and do around here for sure!
Im fairly new to reefing (1 year) and am completely hooked! When it was time ti move I decided that I invested to much time and money into my tank to simply break down and sell everything off. So I get the bright idea to move my tank from Wisconsin to Tennessee.... (nightmare) Long story short, I lost my Ruby red Dragonette and my cleaner shrimp during the move but the tank is rebounding and corals are coloring up again, fish hate me but are healthy.
Right now I'm running a 29g Biocube with In Tanked media basket, JbJ ATO, Stock return, Jebao RW-4, Topless with an AI Prime for lighting, and controlled by an Apex jr.
As for live stock, I have a diamond watchman goby, Purple fire fish, 2 onyx percs, and a (new) cleaner shrimp. My corals are mostly Zoanthids with a few acans and other lps/sps.
Now, being that we moved to Knoxville due to my girlfriends job; She has offered to help me with upgrading to a new, bigger tank! BOOM! I wont say no to that. So I've been doing some tank shopping and planning for 75-90g tank. I was thinking about the Redsea reefer perhaps?! Who knows, its still a ways off for now...
Anyway, Thats all I have for now. Im looking forward to meeting more of the ETRC members down the road and Happy Reefing everyone!
