Hello Everybody

I just ordered a 100gal flat back hex acrylic tank and custom cabinetry yesterday. This seemed like a good size to get my feet wet in the confusing world of reef aquariums. I currently have a 46gal bowfront fresh water tank that has been up and running for about a year. Before that tank I setup a 10gal tank with gold fish. WOW!!! I will never have gold fish again, nasty dirty little fishes. I never did do any research for those 2 tanks. But this new tank and reef I want to get into I have been researching and buying magazines like crazy. My mind feels like a whirlwind right now . So much stuff so many questions so I figured I better start posting and asking instead of just silently reading all the great info you all have here. 1 MILLION question soon to follow HEHE

i say this as my best advice to a beginner. do not,,,and i repeat,,,,,DO NOT look at my tank as an example....i have a well practised eye, decades of experience, and a trunkload of failures to allow me to force the issue and get away with things most cannot~
