But I'm an old dude and have been owning saltwater tanks and reading/researching stuff for several decades. I'll be retiring in 2 years and plan to build a fish room and dabble with larviculture. So the topics that interest me are phyto culture, copepod culture, system automation and larviculture. Complex stuff for a simple mind, but I do my best. I look forward to learning from people with more experience than me.
 
Welcome to your new home for saltwater reef aquarium resources and fun! Welcome to the family! :D

Greetings. And Welcome to our collective obsession.

I, myself, am an old dude with a few years left until retirement! Life is SO good!
Thanks man. I've been in and out of the hobby for quite a while but whenever a system crashed I got depressed and dropped out for a while. Each time I get back in I tend to go a bit bigger.
 
Wow great ambition!!! I retired 4 plus years ago from the USPS. Hey welcome to reef2reef!!!!!

I've been self employed most of my life, so I'm not sure this will be an actual retirement. But we'll see how it goes.

Hello and Welcome to R2R! I too am retired and enjoy the hobby. I can do so much more than years ago when working full time. Lets enjoy while we can!
Retirement is a great thing, I'm looking forward to it. Even with all that time, I'll be trying to automate as much of the maintenance as possible.
