Another Pesky Newb

[dlhirst]

Greetings, all! I am new to this SW / Reef hobby. Promise not to bore you with too many questions, I hope.

Just starting my first reef tank ever. Red Sea Max 130D. At this time, three weeks in, all I have is some live rock and three chromis... taking it slow, despite the kids anxiousness. More soon, likely this will be only a soft coral tank. But, we'll see...

My wife, god bless her, was looking through a reef magazine and said "you're gonna need a bigger tank soon!" Where's the restraint?

My wife is the one that keeps me in check. If yours is on board with upgrading, you two are in trouble...:hammer:

Welcome - as others said, if the wife is on board, you are in trouble!

If yours only wants to kill you sometimes, you're one of the lucky ones!

+1 on the wife being on board - as the girlfriend I'll vouche for that. My boyfriend and I have put nearly everything into our tanks, we have a 90 reef, 175 FOWLR, 265 reef, frag tanks, freshwater tanks. I like to say that I'm a good infuence and keep him on track, but I'm definitely the one whispering in his ear "OOh look that one! we need that! oh and that one too!" :D

and welcome to the hobby!
