New Reefer!!

FullofNguyen · Sep 22, 2020

Hey guys, my name is Steven! I’m 26 years old and have been surrounded by fish most of my life. My dad kept a 250 gallon reef before calling it quits. He told me “don’t get into this hobby, it’s relentless and makes you broke”. Whoops.

Hope to learn a lot from you guys!

when you're moving back into your dads house just tell him it's his fault :D

I'm starting to see your dad's point! But at the same time I can sit in front of my tank for an hour with my face pressed against the glass watching my little creatures I care for.

Best of luck Steven, be sure to bring some of your and your dads expertise to the forum!

LOL. He will probably be disappointed that I decided to get into reefing, but then will back seat drive the whole time and then start to remember why reefing was enjoyable to begin with.

On the cool surprising him with a full 10-20G nano set up all ready to go would probably be a great christmas /fathers day gift.

He probably doens't know how much it has changed and how easy (easy being super relative to 20 years ago lol) it is now.
