Welcome tooR2R , i guess Youll have lots too share with us all with that Many years in this hobby , Nice too have you here !!!
 
Welcome to R2R! In 28 years, what are a few tips you have learned?
I would say that experience is gained from multiple mistakes and disasters in the past. I have now turned my Hobby into a small Business. I do quality Installs, services, maintenance on anything from small to huge. Covering most of New England. I had my own 11ft Tank back in Wales (UK) before Moving here in 04. I strongly believe that there is no such thing as it will do! Its either right or wrong, and as most who have had tanks for a few years, if you think it could Fail/break it will fail. Plus when it fails, you either have the next door neibour watching and feeding your little family, or its 1.30am and some thing hits the fan. I have learned that if you have a pump, you need 2 always always have a spare. This helps when that 1.30am failure happens. I always take a video of my installs on u tube, i will post a few when i get some spare time. Thank you for the warm welcome.
