Default New to the site, thought i would start with som pics!

Hello Everyone, i'm new here to Canreef so i though i would start off with a short introduction and some pictures!

My Name is Ryan, and i live in Rosetown, Saskatchewan. I've been running a reef for roughly 3 years now, though this is the 3rd tank im on. I started with a 33 Gallon, non drilled reef, running pc's. From there i went on to a 33 gallon drilled reef running a MH. We bought a house last year, and the last thing to go from our old house was my aquarium, after getting everything out, and draining it we went to lift the tank off the stand and the bottom cracked out of it. That led me to my current setup which is a 90gal drilled reef. I really enjoy the hobby as it is both challenging and rewarding. My tank is far from being what i want it to be but it is slowly getting there and i am still learning. Here are the most recent pictures of the reef, enjoy, and i look forward to talking with all of you!

Welcome to Canreef, nice tank!

I'm sure you weren't happy at the time when the 33 cracked, but I bet you don't miss it now

Looks great! and welcome to Canreef.
I have some relatives in Rosetown. I'm assuming your closest LFS is in Saskatoon?
