Hmm, let's just say I had a B&W TV growing up, and remember when microwaves came out. So tired all of a sudden

Default Still love it

Iam 54 and had my first salt tank in 1974.It was a 110gal. undergravel filter,skimmer(air) ozone, ehiem filter,rock not live.Flame angle 90$.I also had a hawksbill sea turtle that the exporter shipped a bag full to ancient mariner(lfs) to see if they would send them money.I had it for about 1 year and she got to big and started chasing my flame so I gave it to Vancouver aquarium they raised her to breading size and gave her to Japan for breading.

This was my expectation also. I wonder if this poll shows us a skewed view of the cross section of reefers... people in the 40+ demographic may be less inclined to use electronic message boards.

This poll does show us a cross section of this message board's members though, good enough for me

Could be that the older demographic is less inclined to vote and/or admit to their true age on a public forum, he, he. I wouldn't be too hasty to put a lot of trust in the statistics of a poll like this. And yes, I'm getting up there.

I'm 36 and we had a B&W TV as a youngster. I think we were one of the last families around to get a colour TV. I've been keeping S/W for 5 years.
