Welcome to the family! Once you get in, there is no getting out. Kind of like the mafia.

I have to ask. Why do your friends call you stone?

OK. I gotta know. What was the genesis of your nickname? Mine, in High School, was Jack. The genesis of my nickname is NOT family friendly so I'll not post it here. But I went by Jack for many years. It's good to have ya Dude.

So Greetings and Welcome to our collective obsession!

i grew up in a military family, doing young marines, devil pups/dogs, and stone is my last name, so my friends from the program who went to school with me all called me stone, and it just stuck with everyone else lol.

Hello Stone and Welcome to R2R!

Hey, im andrew but my friends call me stone. New to the forums here, and still relatively new to the hobby, just looking for cool people to talk reef with and some genuine wisdom in times of need. I have a 22.4gal FijiCube AIO, and my goal is to eventually have a mixed reef, but for now its just LPS and zoas, a few shrooms, and my fishies, Betty and Carl the two clowns, Mochi the lawnmower blenny, and Gizmo the cleaner shrimp. i also have some assorted CUC, and a Red Luzon starfish. Once my tank is a little more stable and established, and i have more experience i plan on getting a Jason Fox screamin demon BTA. Ill post a build thread for you guys eventually so you can see what im working with.

Hi Stone and Welcome! It sounds like you are well on your way and glad to hear you are already thinking about your build thread. You fit right in here! Glad you found us.

I plan on making a build thread for the setup, but I figured I’d share it with all you wonderful people who welcomed me! So here it is, work in progress but so in love with it already.
