Old reefer from Ohio---I'm back

old salt reefer · Nov 4, 2019

Got my first Saltwater fish(dwarf seahorses) 51 years ago when I was 8 yrs. old. By 9 yrs. old I had my 1st Clown fish. Left saltwater in my forties. Back then Medal Halide was about the only thing that let you keep coral. Well for my 59th birthday I bought a 20 gallon nano.
Now 2 months and a $1000.00 latter I got a pair of Clown fish and quite a few different Zoanthids(My first frag of 7 polyp fire and ice is already 12 polyps) a Duncan, two blue leg hermit crabs and a Strawberry conch. It's great to be back. Here a few pictures:
