Default Hello
Well, i don't know if i am posting in the right spot but i guess someone can move this if it belongs somewhere else.

I am brand new to saltwater, but after keeping freshwater tanks my whole life of 16 years and getting pretty much all i can out of freshwater i decided to go salty.

I started out with a nano. Just a 20gallon tank i had laying around

It has 130w CF coralife lighting
24 lbs of live rock/base rock
aragonite sand
I got my frist fish a couple of days ago too, a little ocellaris clownfish.

Anyways, i will be posting lots of pics and stuff in the appropriate forums. I've aready found awsome info here. I will make good use of your classifieds forums too because im looking for corals.

Maerine tanks are so much more rewarding than their freshwater cousins.

Congrats on the switch

-it's true marine tanks are definitely somethin' else! definitely harder 2 maintain but a much grander scale of aquatic life 2 add. -and who doesn't like corals?? like seriously, there about as nice as marine tanks can offer.

That is the maon reason why i wanted to go salt.

Fresh is nice but there is only a limited amoutn of things you can do with it. I've grown aquatic plants, bred all types of fish, kept all types of fish from different placers of the world.

I still have about 10 freshwater tanks up and running, but it was time for something a little more challenging.

Im am looking forward to finish stocking this tank, get some more corals, and watch as it develops.
