| Hey there! Hey there 3reef.com! My name is Tristan and I'm new to the world of saltwater aquaria! Right now I'm trying to keep a 75 gallon aquarium out of my college dorm room - at least I have a flat power bill.
Hope to get to know you all much better as the weeks go by - and learn as much as I can!
See you around.

See you around.
~Tristan | Salutations and welcome!
Hope you are planning to live in that dorm room for long, long time to come...what are you going to do about holidays and summer vac.
A 75 is hard to readily move.
Might want to consider a nano to begin with.
Hope to "see you around" also.
Good Luck!

| Welcome!
You're in a dorm with a 75 gal? Wow, you either have a lenient campus or they don't know about a tank that big. Most campuses don't allow above a 10 gallon.
Good luck. How do you deal with it when the dorms close?
