Mitchell Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I thought I'd introduce myself. My names Mitchell, I am 17 and I started off with an aquapod 24 gallon four years ago, but was really restricted by the tank and could never really get into the hobby. Last month I set up a 55 gallon and have been loving it ever since. Its a standard size 55 gallon (48", 13", 20") with a 48" 216 watt HO T5 light, 50 lbs of sand, 50 lbs of MarcoRock, a 1050 gph Evo, and a 200 watt Eheim Jager. Tomorrow I will set up my Bulk Reef Supply Deluxe Reactor to run premium Rox carbon and GFO and next week my Eshopps PSK-100h protein skimmer should come in. I currently have two Ocellaris Clownfish, a Yellow Tang, a Royal Gramma, and a Green Hairy Mushroom Coral. I plan on becoming an actual card carrying member and will hopefully be able to attend the January meeting if things work out. Here is a pic of my 55 gallon: I look forward to swapping frags with all of you, Mitchell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald525 Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Welcome to the forum! Welcome to the forum Mitchell! Nice to have someone so young with the passion!(clap) I started with a 55 gallon and ended up with 2 150 gallons less than a year later and now I think I'm up to only 4 running tanks right now!(laugh) The January meeting is likely going to be at my place in SE Portland so I hope you can come.
