Hello from southern California!
After admiring the reef tanks at my LFS for the past several years I've finally taken the plunge. This will be my first fish tank of any sort so I've a lot to learn. I've kept bearded dragons for years but after my last beardie passed on (RIP Dave!) I donated my terrarium and lights to the kids down the street who recently found a box turtle.
One vacant spot in my living room has led me to a larger vacant spot in my bank account but I'm looking forward to it. An impulse buy to be sure but I did a fair amount of internet research before making the purchase. Ordered on Friday and anxiously awaiting the shipping notification.
The deciding factor for me was the enthusiastic from the guy at the fish store. I've done business with these guys for years so I trust them a little more. Maybe even moreso now because they don't sell the RSM 130 but still had good things to say about it and didn't try to sell me something else instead.
Finding an active community of RSM owners is kinda the cherry on top and really making me feel good about the choice for the 130D. Love the pictures you all are putting up, especially the build threads starting from an empty tank so I'll do my best to take pics as well.
Cheers!
