I fell down the rabbit hole...

Yo reefers!

My name is Joey and my buddy Jared on here got me started with a 34g Solana setup (he actually has the same setup). Every time I visited his pad I couldn't stop starring at his reef tank.

He got me infected with THE BUG!! :ohsnap:

So I've got a Remora skimmer and standard Compact Fluorescence light that came with the Solana. Bought the tank used and it's been up and running for a week now (since Jan 31st). Bought live sand and got the live rock from AquaSD. Tested levels of Ammonia/nitrites/nitrates on Saturday(02/04) and all were 0. Bought a couple chromis on Monday (02/06) and threw them in along with a small cleaner crew and some "tank warming" presents from a fellow sdreefer. Thanks Jrod!

Looking to add some more frags in the next couple weeks...feedback and suggestions greatly appreciated!

i am pretty sure that is a frogspawn not a hammer coral. you should get a better light like some t-5s or leds to grow more corals nice tank looking good.:welcome:

Great job! Jared is a good guy to know. Bring Jared and come see me when you're ready for some more coral. I'll take care of you.

Welcome to the Site.

I might have some "cuttings" that will grow low light...ping me and bring a baggie.

Note: I am still falling down the hole, you never really find the bottom...

I like how you got your return hidden amongst the rock. PC fixture looks slick.

Brian, I told him about you last night and our beer/coral fragging sessions. We need to work out a day!

[Brian_reefragr]

Those were some fun times for sure. Let's do this!

Thanks for the comments everyone!

Brian totally stoked to check out your tank, was just looking at your thread. Looks insane!

Yolo thanks for the offer, ping!
