Terry's Red Sea e max 260

Hi I'm back after 5 year break from keeping a reef tank just set up my red Sea e max 260 60 lb of live sand 22kilo ultra live rock only putt the live rock in on Saturday I used some acrylic rods to build the rock work wanted lots of flow round the back and to grow corals on the back as well done a ammonia test today and got some ammonia present so just got to cycle. I'm going to keep sps and lps just thinking what fish to buy probably some clown fish Blennys

I got that same tank!

I got mine in January. I'm already wanting the 750 XXL coming out in June. I will wait I think until August-Sept.

I'm hooked.
