    Hey Guys -

    New to the forum and new to reef-keeping. I have had various aquariums over the past 10 years ranging from a 40 gallon fish only SW tank to a 100 gallon tank with a big old tiger oscar that performed pet tricks for food! I just ordered a 65g reef ready tank and it will be arriving next week so I am taking the die into the reef side of the hobby and am very excited. I look forward to learning all I can and meeting all of you in the fun world of the interwebs!!

    ::)

    Welcome. This is the right place for information.... information that saved me lots of money in setting it up right in the first place. Definitely pays to do your homework.

    And for those experianced hobbyists joining us - it's still good advice :p
