Howdy! Long time reader, first time poster. I think it's safe to say I'm officially addicted to my reef. It's a 30 gal with t-5's and a prizm skimmer. I'm currently in the planning stages for adding a sump (scares the heck outta me). I've had FOWLR tanks before, but this is my first venture into reefdom. Been set up 2-3 months, and so far, so good. I've learned so much from this site, I was more than happy to sign up for charter membership at the last meeting. Thanks, Jeremy, for all your help and thanks to whoever donated the 'reverse gorilla nipples' to the frag demo. I love them and my kids got a real kick out of their name. Here's a few pics of my tank.

Hello Richard! Tank looks great. It's a great size - not super expensive to stock but also not so small that it's really difficult to keep stable.
Lovely pics.
