I started this because like all habits it grew. I mean I always had some kind of aquarium growing up and still that that a Fish Store is the worlds greatest invention. Each time I go I find myself becoming almost a child again as I almost have to be drug out kicking and screaming.
I admit that I was tankless for what seemed like an eternity (10 years) after my first divorce and joining the Navy right after, but since getting married again May 07 I have started my own tanks again. As to the reef part I blame it on the guy we bought our house from. We walk in to formal living room and there is are 2 great set ups a 65 gallon and a 150 gallon reef. In the end about a month or so after buying house I get to meet the gentleman whose tanks I admired and soon he sold me the 65. I told him that I always wanted salt but was afraid of killing fish and water perameters as both my wife and I work long hours, he assured me that if we follow his careful instruction all would be ok. So far I guess that is true, I am starting 3 more salt set ups soon. A 72 bow FOWLR, a 92 Corner bow show reef, and a 300 whose set up I have not yet thought alot on. Happy reefing to all!
