Sent you an email. I'm very interested and will most likely buy, but would like to know how old it is and if you could email me a pic or two I would be grateful.
Is the ballast electronic or magnetic?
Hi Shelby.
Thank you for the compliment. Once a reef tank is set up, allowed to 'cycle' for a few weeks, and added to slowly, it is actually quite simple to maintain it. All I do now is a small water change every 6 to 8 weeks, clean off the acrylic, and feed the fish :)
