    Is that a monkey frammer?

    I do believe it is what I've heard referred to as a frammer.  Definitely  puffy like a hammer but with frog spawn like appendages.  Would a monkey frammer come from you? lol

    Nice tank and welcome to the site. I’ve got same one going on for about 18months now, no complaints. I went for the optional sump.

    Very nice! .  Love the the big zoa colonies you got going.  I've 'planted' several around the tank and plan on adding many more.  One of my favorites so far.

    I'm loving the tank so far.  How are you liking the sump upgrade?  Long term that may be in my future.

  3. Just a note to say Hi!  Just started my reefing journey in May.  Loving it so far.   All the resources available both online and the LFS have been awesome.  Found this forum via R2R, awesome to see a local group i can participate in with monthly meetings/classifieds/etc..

    See ya around!

    Started a tank thread too:

  4. Starting up a tank thread here (also maintaining similar on R2R).

    After poring over options and losing out on some craigslist/facebook items that were much more reasonable, a RedSea Max-E 260 popped up on craigslist (with a very substantial credit thrown in at a LFS). It was out of my price range but was exactly what I wanted so i fired up eBay and sold off my vintage video game collection gathering dust and jumped in.  I work from home and this is setup in my office. Awesome stress relief to spin my chair and stare at it for 5-10mins 4-5 times a day.  

    I've really enjoyed the start of this hobby and the LFS I've frequented (Woodys, CuttleFish, All Things) have been super helpful and easy to talk to, get advice, etc..   

    I'm mostly enjoying getting small frags and watching them grow.  Currently 5 weeks into waiting out Ich in the main tank so only have 2 clowns (in QT right now).  Can't wait to be able to add more fish!
