anyone here also a reef geek?

I am quite deeply into the reef aquarium hobby, which is where all my spare cash goes.... I need to cut back in order to have money to buy new skates!

Are there any other reef geeks here?

If so, do you belong to a club? I belong to WAMAS (Washington Area Marine Aquarist Society), and CMAS (Chesapeake Marine Aquarist).

My system is a 75 gal hard coral mixed reef, has a 29g sump, 1/2 full 55g refugium, and 16g nano connected to the system that has nothing in it. I have a "peaceful, mostly small fish" tank, which includes a pair of ocellaris, a Rainfords goby, a Hectors goby, a pair of ocellated dragonets, a purple firefish, an orange firefish, and a yellow tang. Lights are T5+LED. I drill my tanks myself and build my own stands.

It's a complex hobby, too expensive, but highly addictive.

Very cool. Any pictures of your aquarium?

I used to have a few salt water tanks. Loved the live rocks and reef aquarium. I designed my filtration systems which ware easy to maintain and inexpensive. But I haven't had an aquarium for a number of years now. Miss the scenery and beauty but not the work and salt.

I was just imaging salt and skate blades....
