urbaneks Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 My Custom CAD Lights My aquarium has been running for 1 year and 7 months. I ordered this aquarium and stand directly from CAD Lights. My goals for this aquarium have always been to successfully grow colorful SPS while maintaining a very clean tank and equipment installation. As I approach the 2 year mark with this aquarium I continue to learn and improve my aquarium husbandry. Overall I'm happy with the progress and I look forward to another 2 years of adventure and SPS growth.

metrokat Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Not sure what the judging criteria is, I like all the entries above for the uniqueness of the individual hobbyist. My vote goes to Eddie. I have read his thread and know that he advocates standard pricing on his favorite corals - zoanthids. He is pretty vocal about his passion for keeping the hobby affordable for everyone. Good luck Eddie. Link to comment
