Hi, thanks for having me here!

Hi, I'm Mike and I've been looking after a now mixed reef tank since February of this year. A friend was not able to look after his tank anymore so I decided to try my hand at looking after a saltwater tank. Initially I didn't know exactly what I was going to do with this thing other than not kill its current inhabitants but now its a fairly full mixed tank with quite a few more residents added. (much thanks to people on this site, I've been reading/learning almost non-stop!) I'll do a build thread at some point to show progress and to get some constructive criticism.

Of course this ride has not been without its hiccups so I will be asking many questions and starting threads when needed. Please be patient with me, thanks!
