Introduction

Hi all!!

I have kept freshwater tanks for about 18 years. My niche has always been nano tanks. My dream has always been to have a reef tank with fish. Finally, a few months ago I setup my first reef tank. It is a small nano tank 5 gallons, with coral and a .5 o. Clownfish that I got from my LFS. I have since put together to a 10 gallon, with coral and put the original clown and added another .5 o. clown, a few blue legged hermits, and a royal gramma basslet. I am so excited to continue this journey and I am happy to have found Reef2Reef to connect with others.
