Hey all,
I started a 36 bow front Fowler about 3 months ago.
Bought lr from the lfs so it cycled fast.
Right now I have: A pair of clowns. 1 Orange spotted Goby, 1 orchard dotty back, 1 lemon meringue wrasse, 1 6 line wrasse, 1 skunk shrimp, 6 Trach snails, 10 red hermits.
I'm loving the saltwater. Should have done this year's ago.

Welcome home, you will love it here!

Nice fish, thanks for sharing! :)
 
My first foray into marine aquaria was several decades ago, and I never looked back. Marine creatures demonstrate intelligence and personality that freshwater species can't come close to matching. Why? I have no idea, but you look at a tank full of danios, barbs, gouramis, etc. and compare it to a tank with clowns, wrasse, gobies, blennies... there really is no comparison.

Wait until you get the chance to spend some time in front of a tank full of Seahorses... or better yet, Cuttlefish :)

Last week I was at the Tampa Aquarium. They had quite a few tanks of different species of horses. They definitely were awesome.
I really liked the puffer with the perpetual smile.
