Hey everyone,
I'm a fishkeeper from Maine, 25 years old and been keeping tropical fish since I was 9 and breeding them since I was 12. However I'm only just starting my first saltwater/reef tank. It's a 10 gallon nano reef that I'm planning on stocking with soft and LPS corals, a shrimp/goby pair and a firefish. I'm looking forward to the new challenge of the salty side and to meeting fishkeepers from a new corner of the fish hobby!

Saltwater fish are usually prettier and require more patience. Take your time and don't be in a rush to add the corals.
