For years I have wanted to start a reef tank. As many have probably said before, I just didn't have the time or money to invest in the hobby. I am a meticulous person when it comes to process and procedure (sorry its a work thing), I research, make lists, watch videos, ask questions, make more lists then change those lists...lol. Until I am certain I have the right setup to begin the process I will not start it. Too many failures from not being prepared (yes I'm an eagle scout too) to risk my investment of time and money. As anyone else I like to see a nice return on my investment.
So I have made my lists, watched numerous videos (the BRS 52 weeks of reefing was great), did my research, picked out my materials and am about ready to dive in. Of course this will be delayed now that the wife has decided we need to put a big addition on the house.
But maybe this is a blessing in disguise...I can now setup my electrical & water the way I need it for a reef tank. I also found a little space that I will be able to turn into a tank room! So looking forward to getting started in the hobby and wish I didn't have to wait 6 months for construction to get done but I've waited this long whats another 6 months.
So, be prepared for alot of questions and requests for opinions when I get rocking and rolling!
