Hello R2R people.
Wife (D_Foster) and I are new to the forum.
And just getting back into fish tanks.
We currently have a 55L with a couple clownfish.
Years ago (20?) we had clowns, banded shrimp, and seahorses.
Then life screwed us up and nothing since.
About two/three months ago, a friend was parting out his stuff and we took whatever he was getting rid of.
And now we are back in the hobby.
Found us a lfs that we like, and they suggested this forum, so here we are.
Headed back to that store today to add few more clowns.
We want some blue-legged hermit crabs, but he is telling us to wait till the tank is more established. In the meantime, hair algae/grass is getting kinda long.
That's us in a nutshell.
Welcome! Glad you both joined. Lisa & Mike here (Lisa is who you'll hear from, Michael lurks (giggle))
Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)
