Hi,
My name is Scott and I have been clean for about 1.5 yrs...... If it wasn't for AAA ( aquarium addicts&nbsp;anonymous) I wouldn't be here today..&nbsp;<br>Although I have been clean for 1.5 yrs I have kept a little 75 hidden away in the back of the house.. Everyday it tempts me, staring me in the face laughing.. begging.. I see it in my sleep, I think about it all the time, there is hardly a day tha goes by that I don't have the urge to sit down and fill it up with water and start tossing money an time at it.. But I always remember the others... Thousands of dollars, hours an hours a day sitting and staring... then theres the tests, the ohhhhh so many tests.. &nbsp;tank after tank after tank.... checking the temps and the salt and the chemical analysis all the time... It became an obsession... the loss of a social life, the loss of family time, the loss of sanity... fraggin this an fraggin that... mix mix mix.... ohhhh look at the purty lights... ohhhh is that a new favia over there.... whats that? is that a new type of condy?? Ohh like a new kid.. must have that condy.... wait forget the condy I think I'll have the peppermint shrimp instead... ohh no...<br>Well here we go again.....
Coming this fall......................................................

OK OK ... Seriously... I have been in the saltwater side of things since I was 13. (38 now) Have been without a setup since I moved here from MA. A little over a yr ago.. Just bought a house and will be doing an in wall later this fall after I get the house put together.. I am a huge fan of DIY.. Love to make things..as of right now I have made---- 2 sets of LED lights, protien skimmers, calcium reactors, complete custom acrylic sumps, media reactors, pump mods, glass and acrylic aquariums, frag racks, overflows, DIY rockwork, electrical components, ect.. ect... to many to list..
Really enjoy playing with acrylic...
Anyway No tank setup yet and still going to be awhile but thought I would pop in an say HI!
Feel free to ask any questions!
