Talking New Saltwater Aquarist

Hello all,

I am 22yrs old, from Michigan. I'm fairly new to the saltwater hobby. I've owned and maintained freshwater aquariums for several years but i think now is a good time for me to get my feet wet with the saltwater side of things. I've bred several different types of freshwater fish, including angels, an i would like to get into breeding black clowns so any information there would be helpful. I currently own a 90gallon planted freshwater setup and i'm starting out with a 14gallon biocube saltwater setup. I have had the cube setup for several months and all the inhabitants are doing great. My next goal is to setup a 144gallon half round reef tank so i may need some pointers for good products to use; i.e. lighting and protein skimmers.

Best Regards,

Craig

with a SW set up there is one basic fundamental rule that we ALL should follow
When in doubt... wait it out. This means take it slow and let the tank "develop" and don't rush it. Time is your friend
