User Notes for otty's 265 gallon

Otty's 265	Sat, May 19 2007
This is my diary of my 265 gallon reef tank. I have been keeping my water parameters as I have brought this Ca reactor online with the system. The tank was born on March 5, 2007 and now has all my rock and livestock from the 55 gal reef I had.
