Prologue
I have been at this hobby for the past 8 years (coming up). I have had sucess to varying degrees, which magically corolate with overall interest (aka: Husbandry).
I must admit I am cheapskate (to a certain degree). As well as an advocate for "why pay for something that I can do myself?"
I have a 125 gallon tank with 55 gallon sump, that is filled two thirds for about 160 gallon total volume. I have a Aqua C EV-180 protein skimmer. For a return I have a Mag Drive 18. As well as a refugium w/ chaeto. Very basic.
