WELCOME...
This website is devoted to one of my passions. Reefkeeping. I have
only been involved in reefkeeping since mid 2000, however I have
enjoyed the saltwater hobby for over 19 years (25 years in the aquarium
hobby as a whole). As a matter of fact, my mated pair of Oscellaris
Clowns have been with me for nearly 15 years now and they are happy
as can be.
My tank is a 75 gallon reef after starting with a 29 gallon as
my starter reef. The smaller tank posed challeges just due to it's
size, while the larger tank brings on other challenges, however
both have been great experiences. The 75 gallon reef tank is a standard
75 gallon size with a built in overflow to a 40 gallon custom designed
sump/refugium. The tank is dedicated to primarily SPS corals as
well as light demanding clams. Of course my clownfish have the highest
priority in this tank since they are the resident seniors.
In August 2003, I had some issues with my full blown reef. I believe
they were related to my DSB not providing the necessary function
of cycling the detritus. I lost many coral and some fish to the
whole ordeal. I finally removed the deep sand bed and I have essentially
started over. But it has been a great learning experience for me
and hope to regain the beauty of an SPS tank I once had.
I hope you enjoy this site and I always appreciate feedback. Email
