New to ARC

[cment]

Hello all...

Im new to ARC and excited i found this site! Im moving from Chicago to Vinings in March and looking foward to visiting the sponsors in the area. A little about me....Ive been keeping salt water tanks for over 4 years now. I started with a biocube 14 with a few mods and only kept softies and zoas. Eventually upgraded to biocube 29 with a nanotuners LED retrofit kit and kept a few sps with lps, softies and zoas. I did have to sell that set up recently bc of the move but kept my bc 14 and will have that set up in ATL. I went pretty much all out on this one, upgraded pump to mj 900 cobalt version, media rack with chemipure and purigen, steve's leds and got myself an MP 10. Heres a pic of the rock work....Cant wait to get this started!!!

thank you, so am I. I have had a lot of time to plan out what i want so ill have a build thread going to keep track of my progress...

Edit: not too familiar with the area but i did see the sponsor page and noticed a few not too far away...before i make the drive is there one that tends to carry more exotic corals than another or has some really nicely colored corals for a fair price?

Well all it's finally here, just got it up and going just have to wait for it to cycle....here's a lil pic. Ill be posting the progress of this guy so let's see where it takes us....I do need to seed the new rock so if someone in the area has a nice pest free coralline cover rock that's been in a stable system for awhile I would gladly meet them somewhere and pay for it. I'm still getting use to the area so bare with me, or I'm in Smyrna if someone could suggest the closest store to me I would greatly appreciate it!
