About Yourself:
Started out with a general trip to the petshop to maybe buy my young son a goldfish to stick in a bowl for him to watch and be entertained with. Did that and when I went back 2 weeks later for supplies I chose a different shop that just happened to have a very large marine section... Later that week I took delivery of the tank and its been salt everything since...

various bits salvaged at low tide, few anemones, finger leather, hammer coral, bubble coral
Tank Size:
88 gallons
Advice:
RESEARCH!!! Its always better to know something and ask alot of questions... This way your bulls#it alarm will sound if anyone leads you down the wrong path as I have been on occasion...

About Yourself:
My boyfriend actually talked me into us getting a tank for our apartment. Over the years he has had many and his dad actually has a 350 gallon that I have always admired. I am now a FULL BLOWN salt water junkie!!! I even made a book full of laminated, color photo and brief description sheets for EVERYTHING in the tank that we fondly refer to as "Our Fishy Family" book . It's nice to use as a quick reference and our visitors seem to enjoy looking as well.
Anyone know of a support group we could join?
