Just a quick intro post, been keeping reefs since the early 80's, though I was out for about 10 years, started back up summer of 15. 60g cube, viewable 'in the round'. Current state is pretty sad, had a massive die off over Christmas due to gun cleaning chemicals on my hands. About ready to start adding corals again. I'm out in the woods, near Buffalo, MO.

Keep seeing threads on here from Facebook, thought I'd sign in and say hi.

Just a photo of the setup... Changed out that Halo for a 250w Halide a few months ago.

Welcome to R2R. I know where Buffalo is (originally from St. Louis). Thanks for joining. Love the cube.

Thanks all.

And, because pictures always make a post better, how 'bout one under the tank? Excuse the rat's nest, I pulled all the cords out of the basket above when I installed the BRS mini-reactor, haven't put 'em back yet. Printed hose clamps for the reactor lines should be here this evening, I'm going to move the MJ pump to the return compartment and clean up the feed lines.

So, Eshopps RS100, SRO1000sss, Tunze ATO, Eshopps reservoir, adapted factory overflow to Herbie style drain, Iwaki pump... the coil of hose comes from my RO/DI unit, in case I need to fill up a bucket for a water change. It runs to the reservoir on a float valve, as well. Need to change my sock :p
