I've had salt since 1991, but 5 years ago I decided to do corals too. It's been a journey with ups and downs, more ups than downs. I started with an 80gal Nuvo which fell apart after 3 months and Innovative Marine decided not to stand behind their warranty, so I moved to a Aqueon 125 gal and I'm totally pleased.
I'm a old fart, so some of my wording may be out of date, I try to stay on top of the language of the young, so please bare with me. My next b-day I will be 71, if I had known that I would have lived this long I would have taken better care of myself. I have almost everything in my tank, but Acros, they still scare me. I have birds nest and pocillopora, but no acros. Mostly because, I'm retired and cheap ;D)
 
Welcome to R2R! There are plenty of hardly acros out there that even I cant kill ;) Tri Color Acro is one of them:)

Lol not older - more seasoned.... Lets see some pics of that tank! Acros dont have to be scary or expensive, just start slow and you'll be hooked. I still love LPS but the acros are really cool too. I look for ones in my LFS that is off a bit in color and hope I can bring it back to its glory!
 
WELCOME!!!!
Now we HAVE to see what you have going on. If you have what you have and they are doing fine, acros are a small hop. Don't be scared. There are ups and downs with acros as well and there are some really nice, relatively inexpensive, and hardy acros to get you going. We are here to help but I have a feeling you can help many here too.
 
Welcome to R2R!!! We're glad your here and look forward to seeing pictures!
