Have to say I am completely overwhelmed by the warm welcome. This can be such an intimidating hobby to start with, but i think we can all agree that we’ve seen some pretty brutal replies on various Internet forums when “newbies” ask questions that some of us take for granted. Or even the elitist vibe some of the shops give off to “outsiders”. Hats off on an amazing response from a welcoming community of aquarists, class act all around!

Welcome. I think most people started out freshwater I know I did. Saltwater has a lot more choices ... which is good and bad. Have fun!!

It’s turning out to be a lot like my Jeep which stands for Just Empty Every Pocket. I’ve always said, owning a Jeep is like a love affair. Mostly between the Jeep and my wallet. This new found love for salt is shaping up to be the same way. Already trying to convince the CFO that I need a 150+ in our sitting room. [emoji3]
