Hello!

Glad you're here!

Hello! I’m Lydia, a college student and experienced freshwater keeper who is wanting to gather research before adventuring into marine fishkeeping! I’ve been doing lots of reading on Ocellaris clownfish, aquacultured live rock, and FOWLR tanks. I’m holding off for a while on actually getting a tank because my dorm doesn’t allow anything over 10 gallons (I’m aiming for 20) so for now I’m doing as much research as I can!

Hi Lydia and Welcome! I'm Lisa. Glad you joined.

Research first is always best practice in this hobby. You'll be better equipped when you are ready to start in the future.

This is a great reference book type article I still refer:
