Hello new to this and just been reading

Hi everyone I did not mean to be rude about not posting. I have been reading everything I could about reef tanks. I have a 75 gallon tank and I have had some money set backs which has my tank sitting empty on a stand in my dining room. First thing is I need a generator since I have lost power over 4 times in the year and half I have lived here so far. Everyone seems so friendly and so full of knowledge. So here is my first post! Hopefully I will be posting info about my project before the end of the year. I will be picking everyone's brian soon enough though.



Sincerely,
dharma

Re: Hello new to this and just been reading

Welcome!

I don't think you will find one person here that would feel you are rude by not posting in lieu of reading, reading, reading. That's the right start in my book. Anything in particular you are having problems with? What problems [other than power loss] are you having?
