its nice to be young and get a jump on the hobby. When I was growing up people rarely had FW tanks. Now there is at list 1 SW tank on every block.

got a 92g corner fresh for my 13th b-day. I kept a spotted gar in it. Once he outgrew the tank i switched it to SW. That was about 9 months later. So i started reef right around 14. I'm 16 now

Impressive. I bought my 14 year old brother a FW tank. It sat for 8 months with no fish before my mom tore it down.... He could not handle a reef tank, no way.

How about a who is the oldest member thread?

I spent half my savings in one month. I take my a little bit from each paycheck and use that for my reef the rest goes to my savings.

Maroon clown fish
Mustard Tang
Sand sifting starfish
Lawnmower blenny
Skunk cleaner shrimp

Fish:

My CB has never touched a coral (knock on wood) All corals are doing great. I have never had anything die in my tank except a pistol shrimp that was half dead when I got it because the guy at the lfs fw dipped it for 5min to get it out of a rock.
