Default Our reef, and hospital

We rescued this tank in August last year, and now this is what we have.



This is our hospital, which we have never needed it for that.

No unfortuntly not. You would not want to see what it looked like. But now i don't mind showing it of a little. I was up to my eyes with work on this tank. This tank was gross, yellow like coffee urine, rocks covered with apatasia, lights, skimmer, return pump not working because there was not enough water in the sump for atleast a month. Left abandoned in an apartment to die. Landlords knew nothing obout salt water, so they tried to sell for weeks before we bought it. Nobody wanted it, but us newbies. It was our first salt.As having 12 fresh water at the time, we were pretty good on water parameters. But this is a whole different ball game. Still has the stupid sump setup, but we are making a new one. Should be ready in a few days, with a new skimmer.
