Sitting here and realizing that between my girlfriend and I, we have a serious addiction to reef keeping. We now have 4 tanks in the house. Two 40 gal, 1 nano 5 gal, and and a 75 gallon display with mixed sps, lps. Im hoping to get started on here and eliminate some excess fish and coral, maybe do some trading. Ive been reef keeping since bioball sumps where all the rage. The girlfriend has been at it for at least that long. Nice to meet you all.
Welcome to ORCA !!!
You're not alone, I had 11 tanks at one time, now I have 5 only
Welcome.

In working to reduce my tanks. Some how added one to a kids room and got two more for quarantine.

I keep water, last checked about 600 gallons worth.
Problem is animals keep using it as there water closet.
Worst of all the littlest ones keep using up all the supplies.
I only have three in the house with water in them, but there are four sitting around here empty as well. Funny how this things grows on yah....
Four individual systems Right now.
30gal red sea 130d lps/softies/anemone tank, kalk ato, reef bright led strip.
40 softies set up.
550 total gallon marineland 300 DD main system 18 months old now and stabilized. T5 VHO lights/ BLUE led strip, Fully custom built LIFE REEF sump and FUGE, AWESOME 60" tall skimmer, and 1000+ gallon rated custom Ca reactor, 3 50 gallon attached SPS frag systems lite with a combination of HM and LED and T5 fixtures.
A 200 gallon MARS quarintine with UV system/ medication for new arrivals.
Still lots to learn about the hobby but I have amassed a great collection of real beauties. I have broken past the stage of keeping things alive and now there actually growing out. Which is a big hurdle for many beginners I must admit. Good information and advise is hard to get sometimes and the club has done wonders with respect to quality advise and help in the hobby.
THANKS Orlando Reef Educators Organization!!!!
I have some stock that I need to trade or sell from a fish only tank. As soon as I am allowed I will post pictures of the queen and French angels I have among other fish. cheers to all.
