Smile Hello

Hi, just wanted to drop a quick hello to everyone. I am new to the site, and fairly new to the hobby as well. I have been keeping freshwater fish for almost 4 years now. I decided to give saltwater a try, just because I was fascinated with all the different types and colors of fish, corals, inverts, etc...

About a year and a half ago I purchased a 65 gal (not reef ready, big mistake) to keep a FO tank. Well that lasted to the end of the cycle when I started to introduce live rock to the tank, now about 90 lbs of live rock later I wanted to start a reef tank. I removed all the rock from the tank pulled out all the fish I had in there, (gave them a great home in a nice SW tank we keep at where I work, they are all doing great.) I kept one fish, Anthias, cleaner shrimp, and a coral banded shrimp. I attempted to create a nice aquascape, not so sure. I just can seem to get it the way I want. I tried three times. I have added 3 corals, a zoo, yellow polyp and a clove polyp, all are doing great.

I am already planning my next purchase. 120 gal reef ready tank, can't wait.

Enough rambling on. I am really looking froward to using this site and getting all the advise and help I am going to need. The one thing they forgot to tell me about keeping a saltwater tank, is how expensive this hobby is. I really think drugs would have been cheaper, but not as rewarding. LOL

Thanks
