Welcome to R2R!!!Hello all. I'm a long time reef (and planted tank) keeper -- since the early 90s, when CFL lighting was the hot new tech, but T12VHO actinics and 6.5K halides were the standby. We were still trying to identify coral to genus then, using Puterbaugh and Borneman's "Practical Guide to Corals", and plenum denitrification was the way of the future.
Fun fact: that era in reefkeeping was twice as far from the present as it was from the publication of Robert P.L. Straughan's "Keeping LIve Corals and Invertebrates" (1976), in which he advocated transferring corals into a wide-mouth fish bowl so they could be taken outside for sun.
My current tank, which still also houses just a couple corals I've had since the early 90s, as well as some (legally, of course) wild collected Florida live rock, is a 90g running T5HO, a Simplicity skimmer, and a sulfur denitrator.
