Adam_T's new build (back in the hobby)
So...I've been "out of the hobby" for a while now, with a fish only tank that I bought from Petsmart (yayyyy). Anyway, I've decided to get back in and focus on a few specific things instead of going all out.
My old setup was an Elos Mini mixed-reef with Anenomes, SPS, LPS, Softies, etc...etc...and I had to dose daily. I also had LED's and a few other nifty gadgets. It became very overwhelming and I decided to call it quits. Anywho...enough back story, here is some new info!
