Hi Reef2Reef,
After a 10 year hiatus from reefing I've decided to take another dive. I didn't normally post here back then although had an account, it was more at the "other" site. As always I want to start a tank thread to chat, share and log my experiences in reefing.
I've decided on a Red Sea Reefer Peninsula 650 system. I really missed the rimless look of my Elos tanks I've had in the past, back then Elos USA was about 1 hour from where I live so it was pretty easy to drive there and pickup a system. Today I guess you can say its even easier that they offer delivery to your driveway included in sale price. So here goes my list of equipment. I must say Marine Depot, Bulk Reef Supply (BRS) and Premium Aquatics have extremely fast shipping! I started ordering Sunday evening and packages are already arriving today. If I recall back then BRS started off just selling 2-Part solution mixes. So awesome how they have grown!
