Another Newbie......

LeeCrane · Jun 4, 2018

My doctor's office has a reef aquarium. Recently I spent more time seeing him than I wanted but made sure I sat next to the aquarium and couldn't take my eyes off it. That was five months ago. And since then I've read forums, visited local shops, talked to people at those shops, watched alot of YouTube. But haven't pulled the trigger. No, I don't have an extra set of helping hands at home. I do leave occasionally to go out of town. I am not the ideal candidate to handle this responsibility. But it still fascinates me. Maybe I'll pull the trigger.....maybe. But not now. Still, I do enjoy reading this outstanding forum.
