Hi everyone, my name is Shelbi :) I recently got into the hobby! I've always wanted a marine aquarium and a few months ago I went and got a 10g tank with my roommate with a freshwater aquascape in mind. One thing led to another, and it turned into a saltwater reef.. oops^^ We've been doing a lot of research and so far, even though its so small, we've actually managed to do very well! We have quite a few beginner corals and 4 fish (we just set up a 25g aquatop so they have more room soon). Sadly, the fish just broke out with some ick, but we hopefully caught it early enough and are treating it right now. We're going to use the 10g as a quarantine tank once the 25g is cycled. Anyways, I've learned a lot in just a about 2 months (we started at the very beginning of May) and I hope to learn much more here! Sorry for the long intro, but qnyways, thanks for reading! And nice to meet you! :)
