 |  Well Hello From Colorado
Hello there everyone I am super excited to be part of this little family. Just a little back ground of myself. I have been a happy fish owner for about four years now. I started a freshwater tank in my office then took my sister's 35 gallon and then on my birthday a few years ago my girlfriend bought me a 75gallon which I still have. This whole time I have been a freshy fan. Please don't hate me as I am expecting a 29 gallon bioCube in a few days. That of course is going to be my first reef tank... YAY!!! Then from there I hope to convert the 75g. But baby steps for now.. I am excited to get help from all you nice people in getting my new tank running. Any and all help please. |

welcome!
we're not fresh-haters here!  but glad to see you're reaching for the pinacle of aquarium enjoyment! i take care of fresh and salt tanks, i'll just say don't let the transition overwhelm you. reefs are more delicate and take more patience, so do plenty of research and keep a slow pace - don't give up! good luck with your wet endeavors.

Welcome to the dark side of the pond. Nothing wrong with FW, I think we all started from there, I know I did. I know its easier said then done, but if I where you, I would start with the 75g and not the cube. It will save you money, time, headaches and moving all the livestock. Just food for thought.

Welcome into "family" also.
Glad to see you found way here.
Stay close and we will make sure you stay out of trouble with new tank...
I know it looks like allot to absorb initially...but basics pretty simple..
While waiting, study up on past posts here at 3Reef.
Good Luck & Enjoy!
