Default Hi

Hi, I'm an aquarium enthusiast from the 70's. I've renewed my interest now that I'm retired and have discovered that..........things have changed...........a lot.

Any suggestions you can give me about the new concepts in aquarium upkeep will be greatly appreciated

thank you

Things have changed much since the 70's when keeping a reef tank was not only rare, extraordinarily difficult to maintain and only for the rich.

Wide variety of new affordible equipment available now that wil allow about anyone to successfully keep a reef tank.

Read old posts here.

Check out large web retailers of SW tank supplies, like MarineDepot or Drs. Foster and Smith.

Keep us posted.

Good Luck!

Rgds,


Scott
