 |  Well HELLLLLLOOOOOOOO!!
My name is Dave...
I've been scuba diving around the Western Hemisphere for about 10 years now. I've gone diving in Cayman (Grand, Little, & Brac), Bonaire, Curacao, St. Lucia, Beliz, Hawaii, Bahamas, etc... and nothing is cooler than having a little piece of my travels chillin' in my living room.
I've had FW tanks for years, but had SW for only the past year (now that I actually have money and don't need to starve). I'm new to corals, and would definately like to have a reef tank.
I'm a mechanical engineer by day, and have recently been picking the minds of tank builders. Sooner than later I would love to build my own custom tank around the 250 gal vicinity.
Everyone here seems very nice, and from the threads I've read, it sounds like everybody on this site just wants to help & inform.
Good people... Good people...
Look forward to chattin' with ya'll.
-Dave
