Introduce Yourself

[sailfin tang]

Hi my name is Kevin
Mendon IL.
I have an 80 gallon glass bow front with which I'm efforting a reef tank.
I converted it from fresh to salt 6 months ago.
It has a sand bottom, about 150 lbs of live rock and one blue velvet Damsel we call Dave

I run a cascade 1200, an inline UV, a pc lighting fixture, and a couple of small eheim powerheads
I've spent the past 6 months feeding my one fish and cleaning algae off the glass.
My diligence to move slowly is a result of being scared to make mistakes as much as to make sure to cycle it the best I can.
I'm fortunate to have recently hired a "fish guy" that has about 10 accounts in my area helping me with my set up.
My guy says that all my numbers are great and I will have a "clean-up crew" coming this weekend.
I'm glad to be onboard and I'm looking forward to learning from you all.

Welcome to the boards. It sounds like you're well on the way in this VERY addictive hobby. Please don't be afraid to ask any questions no matter how dumb they sound. All of us have been newbies at one time. The only dumb question is the question that is never asked. Good luck!!!
