My name is Brian Chandler. I’m a Disabled Army Veteran.I was deployed to Afghanistan in June 2009-June 2010 and May 2011- Sept 2011. I then was honorably medical discharged in June 2012. I got into reefing in August 2024 as an alternative treatment for my PTSD. It has been an amazing experience so far. I have learned so much in the past 6 months about reef keeping, coral care, fish, and inverts. I am glad I started this reefing journey. I have met many people on Reef2Reef and local that I can now call friends. I have found a wonderful community of people that will help you if you need it.
