I've been a longtime reader on Reef2Reef, but never registered or posted, but after a complete tank loss last week I thought it was time to be more involved in the hobby and do what I can to help new reefers skip some of the learning curve and avoid some of the mistakes I've made along the way. We have several freshwater tanks in our house, but I decided to jump into saltwater about a year and a half ago with a Fluval Evo 13.5 and it's been great aside from the tragedy that occurred Friday. I'll do a separate post about that later. I've really enjoyed learning about reef-keeping and the it's amazing how great the community is. There are so many helpful people that have helped me skip their mistakes and make my own. Hopefully I can extend the same courtesy to more newcomers along the way.
