Hey everybody I’m David. I have 2 kids and a beautiful wife that keep me busy. I have a million different hobbies my favorite are keeping aquariums, discussing KISS with buddies on our podcast ā€œHooligan Nationā€, collecting records and playing video games.


I’m currently a freshwater only guy keeping common goldfish and betta fish (separate tanks. I know!) I am getting more and more into the hobby and I am beginning to consider my first saltwater tank. I would love to build a pretty reef and keep some clown fish with the intention to try breeding them in a few years. I have almost zero knowledge of how to go about this. I look forward to discussing this goal and making new friends that have tips and a passion for reef keeping. This board will be a huge resource for me during this journey. Thanks in advance and I look forward to growing in the hobby with you all!
Welcome, I am also a newbie. I have been using brs tv and have since moved over to serious reefs on Patreon. I am sure there are a lot of opinions on the guy that runs it but I enjoy it. As always with any advice do your own research and decide if it’s for you. Again welcome!
