+1

Also, don't pay to much attention to the spats and arguments that go on (we fight like brothers and sisters)

95th and Olive. I guess we're nearly neighbors!!

I'm new to fish keeping in general. I had a 40g freshwater tank a few years back. Looking forward to trying a SW reef tank.

Welcome!!

Be sure to let us know when you get your tank cycled and I'll find ya some frags too.

So what size of tank are you starting with?, Is it fish only or are you building a reef?

I recomend that you impose on a couple of us and stop by to see a setup up and running, it helped me quite a bit to be able to ask why this & how that.

Jeff

Edit: I'm over here @ 75th & Peoria.

My tanks (JBJ 12 and JBJ 24) are both at work. Both are going to be set as reef tanks.

I'd love to come by and see what you've got going. I'm trying to convince my wife to adding a tank at home and I'd love to see how you have them set up.

I've had the 24 up for about a month now. It's cycled and I've got a few goodies in it.

1 Banded Coral Shrimp
1 Peppermint Shrimp
2 clown gobies (really small about 2" if put end to end)
CUC
1 Toadstool mushroom

I'd like to add more coral so I'd love any frags you can spare!!

The 12 I'm just adding water to today.

There's one other guy here who is also trying a reef tank. He's got a new Red Sea Max. We're both going to try and make the Dec 2 meeting (if it's still on).
