Thought I'd Finally Join & Say Hi

Welcome to our R2R family!

Hey, I've been lurking on here for a while soaking up all the good advice. I started reefing and have had my tank going for about 6 months now. Enjoying it so far! Currently have an Innovative Marine 15g mixed reef. I didn't realize this hobby was a thing until one of my kid's TV shows mentioned a pistol shrimp. I didn't believe that was a real thing until I googled. One of the first links was R2R talking about keeping them and decided I had to start a tank (and yes I have a Randall's Pistol Shrimp paired with a Yasha Goby) :)

Welcome to Reef2Reef! My first Goby/Pistol Shrimp combo was 20 years ago. It was a Randall's paired with a Yasha Haza.
