time at work has been cut and funds are cut real low so i had a shitty 10g nano what a piece of rock and that lets try going back to the roots of the hobby.
a realy good friend of mine told me in the 70's thay would take live rock put it in a tank and see what happens. so i did just that. bought about 10 pounds of realy nice rock addaed some coropa alge and just let it grow. know i am seeing ornge, pink,yellow, and red spunges growing some realy weird spong that no one can id and a few sps and soft corals growing. i have added one of the last coarls that i had to the tank and fish. 4 mounths have gown by and the tank looks awsome and no money invested in coarls. for all the newbes out there ypu dont need tones of money to starte a reef tank just a little time and love. the tank has olny about 200 invested and i love it. just thought id share for people that keep saying that saltwater is to expence.
por mans reef!

Ive been thinking about just going out to the ocean one day out by the light house in St. Augustine and picking up some sea grass and letting it go. Nice tank man! looks good.
