New Aquarist Who’s SO Excited To Be Here!

[reeferthatsmokesreefer]

Hey all!

My name is Sable. I just started 3 tanks (yes all at once lol) this August. I now have 2 bettas and one plants only! When researching the hobby, I was pushed away from saltwater (as most new hobbyists seem to be) and I went freshwater. Feels like a mistake! But I know that I’ll be setting up a reef tank within the next 2 months and I’m so excited to see it thriving within the next year! I’m also super interested in building a temperate or cold water reef tank, since I am from Portland, Oregon and I’d love to build an Oregon themed tank.

I will be posting a build thread once I get moved into my new house next month

P.S. I know this site is supposed to be super family friendly, so please let me know if I should change my username! I can change it to “reeferthatlovesreefer” or “reeferthatlovesrfr” or something along those lines if my current handle is pushing lines! My current handle is how you will find me on Instagram and the likes, though.

Alright, y’all! Can’t wait to get to know everyone

Hi Sable! Welcome to Reef2Reef! You’re in a good place to find all your question about saltwater tanks. Freshwater is just the gateway to enabling more tanks into your life. Looking forward to seeing your future tanks!

Hey reeferthatsmokesreefer,

Haha thank you!
It’s definitely a reflection of me. Ever since I’ve been researching reef tanks it’s become a super-passion, which is significant for me since I have never really been interested in having a hobby or had a real passion that I could act on! And I’ve been smoking since I was pretty young, it’s kind of a family thing, and it wouldn’t feel right not to include that part of me while representing myself.
Thanks again!

Lol yeah, that’s what I’m getting from what I see online. Bettas are the “gateway fish” period and freshwater is the gateway to saltwater haha.

Great to meet you!
