Hello everyone,

My name is Kai, and new to this community and hobby. Mostly been doing freshwater, but my boys (9yo and 3yo) have both been fascinated by saltwater fishes. We do plenty of snorkeling and diving (PADI Certified) and bring home photos and videos for the boys and have thankfully caught their attention and kept their interest in marine life.

As a way to continue that, I have made a decision to join R2R and get the best info I can from you all. Would love to begin this journey and of course give them the responsibility to understand marine life more intimately.

Our plan is to start small with an AIO tank and go from there. Any suggestions for a 9 and 3 yr old to co exist their marine interests would be appreciated. Info on Everything from fish types to coral and cleaners would be helpful.



I look forward to talking with everyone.

This is a perfect hobby to share with your kids! Welcome to Reef2Reef!
 
Welcome to the community Kai! If you're looking for a small aio, I highly suggest checking out innovative marine's 20/25g starter tanks! Big enough to help you and your boys get some cool beginner coral and a few fish :D
