Really, I only use a very simple filtration system that consists of a corner overflow from the 90 gallon display tank. So, 20 years ago I started my first 30 gallon salt water tank and I believe I made every rookie mistake there was to be made. Then I started reading, observing, asking questions at the closest fish store (which is an hour from home) and eventually joined forums and Facebook groups to see if salt water might be a more suitable fit for me. Living in a rural locale, there are no reef clubs, local saltwater fish stores, or for that matter, anyone I know that has a reef tank or has any knowledge on saltwater aquariums. Watching him waste away was what almost forced me out of the hobby. I've gone through the various routes of freshwater tropicals, planted tanks, african cichlids, a mated pair of Oscars which broke my heart when I was unsuccessful at curing the female's hole-in-the-head disease and when I lost her, the male absolutely refused to eat. With a single, lucky ping-pong ball landing in that small, but magical fish bowl at the local carnival, and taking Jerome home with me, I was bitten by the bug. I started in this hobby before I even started going to school when a little orange fellow named Jerome came into my life.

(I'm a slow mover.) lol :) It's a mixed reef including several fish, a wide variety of corals & frags, including softies, LPS, a Carpet Anemone, shrimp, snails, crabs, a Derasa Clam and I'm slowly learning how to house my 1st SPS's and sticks. The system also includes a Trigger Systems Crystal 30 gallon sump. My husband and I heavily customized it to fit our needs. In December 2016 I started up my present system is a peninsula configuration consisting of a 90 gallon Marineland Corner-Flo main display on an oak cabinet with a cherry finish on one side and white on the other.
Being humble enough to admit your shortcomings and to bend enough to make changes are paramount to attain your goals. Dealing with environmental influences, dedication, husbandry, and a hunger to learn and then a willingness to apply the knowledge are all requirements to become successful. There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to what works for one might or might not work for another tank. I love this hobby because of the challenges it poses.
