I guess i should start with a little introduction.
I have recently moved to Victoria from calgary to attend school and to be with my fiance. I have been keeping a saltwater tank for about two years and have succumbed to "reefing bug" that so many of you are familiar with.
My experience started with a Fish only Biocube 29 that slowly transformed into this:
and then finally to a full mixed reef which included few lps some softies, Zoa/palys, and of course sps.

A full blown mixed reef.
From here i moved cities and experienced a full tank crash loosing all of my corals and fish (with exception of a few Zoas that are still brown).
When i finally settled here on this island. The girlfriend brought up the idea of a new and bigger tank. one that would allow is to hold a greater variety of fish and have more room to keep corals. we were planning on having a tank built but then an opportunity arose to purchases a full set up with almost all of the specifications we were planning.
The original owner did not take any short cuts on his build. Bubbleking skimmer, ATI sunpower 6 bulb fixture, GHL doser, and the most important thing... time to plan out a unique aquascape that would turn heads. His design for the tank has inspired me to continue forward with his initial vision for the tank. I hope to carry on in the manner that maintains true to his original design and vision.
This picture is where my journey Begins

.
I am still in the process of deciding which coral pieces to keep. My Goal for this tank is to have a minimal amount of corals to accent the rock work. The other thing i would like to implement is corals with vibrant colours.
A few of the corals in the picture are not attached yet as i am still trying to figure out what I find the most visually pleasing. I have always been a person open to opinions and feed back so please feel free to help me on this Journey.
On a side note i would like to apologize to a few members who I feel i was previously an unreliable person to deal with in the sale sections. I was going through a very unstable time in my life, which was reflected in my personality and actions.
