Hi, just introducing myself,
Been around tanks and pond since i can remeber my father had tropical aquariums and garden ponds and took me angling, this led to my career descision and 3 years in college to study fishery management, fish husbandry and fishery science which led to several jobs on commercial fish farms for table fish and then to a more ecologicaly friendly type of aquaculture restocking rivers.
So for the next few decades i kept various tropical tanks with the mindset of next year i will get a marine tank set up but never did.
Recently moved so that was the kick i needed and set up a small 20 gallon tank that finally had the 2 clownfish in i had wanted for about 30 years, 2 years later there is now a 20 gallon next to my desk a 20 gallon in the kitchen and a 250 gallon on order so both feet are definately in the marine game now.
More tanks more fun less money and time.

Welcome! Glad you are here! We'd love to see photos of your tanks if you have any. 🙂

You're going to love the 250! First decision - are you thinking reef, mixed reef, or fish only?
