Official Introduction Thread! With pics!

[derek_s]

Hey guys, I met a couple of you at the Frag Meet, but I am a new member, and I have finally got my tank of the ground enough to share some pics.

It's a 29 Gal with a ~15 gal DIYish sump/fuge and ~50 lbs LR, 40 lbs LS. I'm running a Mag 5 return and Mag3 powered Remora Skimmer.

Livestock is 2 percs, 1 engineer goby, 3 cleaner shrimp, 1 sally, and 15 blue-legs.

Corals are small frags, but include Xenia, Candy Cane, the 2 free Zoos from the meet, an orange ricordea, and 2 hitchhiker/unknown polyps (left side, 2nd picture).

Just wanted to share!:thumbs:

Thanks! I really wanted something a little different on the rock work. I liked the idea of a combination. Its cool because the fish swim in and out of it.

Even though I like the idea of mixed reefs, I have really taken a liking to the LPS varieties of corals, and I hope to add a few more over time, like a lobo and a plate or two. Right now I'm just in 'wait impatiently' mode.
