I'm Anna from Iowa City. Started in Feb. of 2006 - the worst financial mistake Max ever made was getting me equipment for a nano reef for Valentine's Day that year! I just joined GIRS about two weeks ago, but I've been on Reef Central and Nano-Reef since I got started in the hobby.

I have a 20 packed full of zoas, SPS, a little LPS, and a clam, soon to be 25 (tank thread in the General Forum!). Oh and there just might be a mystery upgrade in the very near future!

Jeff Wagner in CR.  Ive started my first reef tank in November 2007 and have already upgraded twice.

Currently have a 40 breeder with 20 sump.  Mainly xenia... i know, but I love that stuff!  I do need some color tho...

I'm Brett Stout, Coralville, i started researching the facts of saltwater in 2004, got my first tank in early 2007 (55 gallon) and upgraded to 90 last month.

90 Gallon with built in overflow
used, reconstructed sump
250 and 150 W heaters
Coralife 48" with Lunar Lights
Turbo Twist UV Sterilizer 6x
Seaclone 100 skimmer

I'm Josh.

I've been in CR for nearly two years now. I live off Blairs Ferry out towards Palo.

I started with an Aquapod in the office. It had a major issue while I was traveling and I moved the few things that lived to a friends till I got a 210 set up at home. It was a good system with a Nice 75 gal sump and refugium in the stand. I put some Marco rocks in and then pieces from my aquapod and a bunch more from my dads tanks in CA. It now has the Marco Rocks seeded well. I am running 4 96w PC lights with hopes to upgrade soon.

I started running a denitrator that I got from ebay. It is working pretty good. Still in test phase.

I realize how this hobby is something that should not be gone into alone. There is too much info to aquire all by ones self. I hope to share what I have learned over the last two years and learn from all of your experiences too.
