Hi!

My name is Chris and I live in Northern VA. I've kept freshwater tanks for over 20 years (in fact, I'm a moderator at ultimatebettas.com), but I've never tried a saltwater tank until now. I'm dying to get started, but I've learned the best way to avoid newbish tragedies is to do your homework first, so here I am. I'm looking forward to learning as much as I can. See you in the forums!
 
Hi Chris, Welcome to Reef2Reef. How bout some pictures of your fresh water tanks? We like all fish, check out our Fresh water section too. Fresh Water Interest

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

    Votes: 12 28.6%

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 6 14.3%

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 6 14.3%

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 10 23.8%

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 9 21.4%

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 8 19.0%

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 4.8%

  • I haven’t really considered this before

    Votes: 3 7.1%

  • Something else (see my comments in the thread)
