Hi All,
My name is Dean and I'm interested in becoming a Reef hobbyist.
I've had a 29G Freshwater Aquarium for around 8 years now, mainly comprising of South American Cichlids. I have got a great deal of enjoyment out of keeping a freshwater aquarium for so long, I am excited to start pursuing a Reef tank! This has become feasible mainly because I have graduated from college and now how the funds to start looking into a Salwater Tank as I know that they can be quite expensive(I am sure I am still heavily underestimating at this point!).
I'm thinking that I will want to start off relatively small(Less than 100G) and work on that tank for a while to ensure that it is something that I can happily keep up with. At this point I have relatively no knowledge of everything it takes to have a successful reef tank, but I do understand that keeping an aquarium is far more work than dumping in water and adding fish! I would like to have the tank up and running by next summer so I will use the in between time to hopefully trade/find some good deals to get everything up and running.
I look forward to tapping into all of your knowledge!
