    Default Our first mixed reef tank 7 month old

    HI, newbie here. Had freshwater fish for 12 months and made the move to saltwater about 7 months ago. Own a 275gallon (1100liter) mixed reef tank. Am learning every day, have lots of stupid question, but want to learn as much as possible to have all my fish and corals happy and thriving. This is a picture of our tank !
