Hi all,
I'm new to R2R and thought I'd introduce myself. I've been in the saltwater hobby for about 6 years now. I've been active on other forums, but decided to join R2R because I just can't get enough of this hobby. Hoping to help others and learn from others in this very fun, yet often times complex hobby.
I currently have a 150 gallon mixed reef. I am mostly attracted to SPS, and some LPS, but have some big zoa colonies from when I first got into corals also. I love watching my coral grow and seeing them color up as a reward for having a stable and well maintained tank. I probably get way more excited than I should when I notice a coral has grown a new polyp or encrusted another 1/8".
I've now been in the hobby long enough that I'm starting to frag some of my large colonies. I originally planned on always just upgrading my tank to keep up with coral growth, but don't have room in my current house for a larger display tank on my first floor, and don't want to hide it in the basement. So I'm discovering a whole new side of the hobby, fragging. Haven't sold any yet, but am excited to be able to sell/trade the corals I have to both diversify what I keep, and to add to other people's tanks what has brought me joy and excitement for years.
Looking forward to being part of the R2R community!
