Hi I'm new and interested in starting a saltwater tank. My son-in-law, who is into both salt and fresh, advised me to register here and begin to learn about what is involved in deciding what it is we want in our tank, setting up, etc. Jason will be guiding us.

Whew! It is much more involved than I thought. I was just looking at the tank journal page and looked at someone's plumbing setup. Everyone's got something different!

At the moment we want a tank of about 110-140 gal. with live rock, sand, lots of, um, you know those things, the ones that wave, and some of those other ones that look like hands, maybe a crab and a starfish, and some real fish too.

I think it's gonna be interesting. Nice to meet you all.
