I know a few reefers in their 50s+ who aren't all that tech savvy. Sure they have email and surf the web but don't really participate in forums. If they did (forums) they are probably their looking for specific information rather than goofing around and spilling the beans on how old they are

I fall in the 10-50 demographic..

That is what you say Blaine, I have yet to substantiate your claims

I will be 26 in 9 days , been in the hobby for a little over 2 years now, fresh water since I was about 7-8 years old.......

I love the results here, apart from the 10-19 category, what an almost perfect Guassian distribution.

To be honest I'm surprised at the low #'s in the 10-19 category. That can't be indicative of the hobby, can it? I'm guessing it's really a higher percentage in the hobby in that age group but they're just disproportionately "not on Canreef" per se.

It doesn't surprise me too much to see the highest numbers so far of people in their 20's. That makes total sense to me.

I'm in the 30-39 category, and will be for a tiny little while longer (more than one year left in that category )
