Hello,
Not entirely "new" to reefkeeping. I mean back when I used to grow hards with Metal Halide Pendants in Minnesota over 12 years ago it seems we were in the dark age compared to some stuff I see on the market now. Man, back then skimmers where a rare and expensive! LOL. Refugiums were only of hypothetical need.

My question is this, since I am now located in Corpus what are the pitfalls of attempting a system with real seawater? This seems like a challenge I cant shy away from. I am thinking 10 to 20 gal. Nothing big.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks Much
Tim
