Hello from Cincy!

Welcome to R2R! This is a very resourceful forum!
I too, am prior USAF and lived in Cincinnati, but moved to Indiana last year. There is a very solid reefing community in Cincy/Dayton.
Looking forward to seeing a thread on your tank!
 
Greetings and welcome to the reef, from a fellow veteran!
 
Welcome!
I’m a retired Air Force veteran. I was born and raised in Michigan. I enlisted while still in high school and entered basic training after graduation. I served for 21 years and settled in Cincinnati, Ohio when I retired. I was in Inventory Management (aka Supply guy). After retirement i had a couple of help desk jobs but didn’t like that environment. Later, I was hired by Cincinnati Children’s Hospital as a Supply guy and have been here for over 17 years. My wife of 28+ years started our first reef tank in February of 2023.
 
Welcome to the reef. I discovered this forum as it seemed to always come up when I googled a question. Finally joined, then chose to become a supporting member and later a partner member to keep the forum available for others to come. My wife @Ocean_Queenie and I started culturing copepods and phytoplankton eventually selling some on here as a hobbyist. Eventually we decided to try to make a career out of it so we are now sponsors as well. I love the Reef2 Reef community here and the wealth of knowledge. Thanks for joining us.
