Hi R2R!

After some time of lurking, reading, checking, watching and so on I thought it's a time to finally say 'hi', so here it goes :)

Even if I'm not a stranger to fishkeeping, as I've been keeping/breeding tanganyika cichlids for several years, I'm still a newbie to saltwater, as I got my first nano tank 3 years ago (EVO 13.5). I just wish first advice someone would give me, back then, would be 'go as big as you can' (and maybe another one - 'don't buy everything what looks nice' ;) ). After a year since getting EVO I upgraded it to 30G (leaving EVO as QT). And now when another year since the upgrade passed I'm thinking about doubling the size (while still keeping 30G). I should definitely start with the latest :)

Anyway, thanks for having me here! :)
Pete

P.S. Here's a recent pic of my tank, mainly LPS with few soft/SPS ones:

Welcome. However, forgot to tell us lads where you are from on the lovely Emerald Island! Few close friends live in Galway, Cork, Kerry, and Dublin so I visit every other year and spend a month roaming the island. Well, not this year due to C19.

Again, welcome!
