I started when my aunt gave me a "fish blender" for a beta fish. A few weeks later my friend gave me his 10g tank with everything in it and of course being the silly 12 year old that I was, I put 13 large fish in a 10g tank. I was always wodnering why fish wouldnt last more than a week....

Then I had (2) 10g tanks, then a 30g FW tank, then another 30g FW tank. After a while I converted one of the FW tanks to a cichlid tank and started breeding cichlids. That is when I met a friend who was also into fish and I told him how I always wanted saltwater and he said he did too. We basically went into the hobby together. Three years later here I am keeping corals and have SO much more info than I did when I started. To be honest, I am not even sure how I found reefbuilders, but I would not be where I am now in my reefkeeping hobby if it were not for this site.
