Jeremy0322 is looking at reefs
Default Re: How did you discover reef keeping?

First off having 2 headboards that are 75 gallon tanks is an awesome idea..i will have to look into that.

How i got into saltwater...Well my grandparents had always had a 65 tall freshwater tank and it was cool and all but it was dreary. My mothers second husband, Eric, was like my father from the time I was 2. When they got divorced i still hung out with him because I was not very close with my actual dad. Eric had a 125 with build in overflows, a 80 gallon sump, 5 inch sand bed, and just awesome fish. Naso, Yellow, 2 clowns, and there were a bunch more. I have not talked to him in a few years though, but from what "grandma" said he is breeding Angel fish out of it(freshwater) now. I was fascinated with it at that age but when we had our falling out and stopped talking I had completely forgotten about the hobby. About 2 weeks into my first semester of college(last fall) i was walking to one of my math classes and the biology department has a 30 gallon. It wasnt much at the time(has gotten alot better) but it sparked my interest again. I forgot how much i loved this stuff. After making special trips for a few days i decided I wanted one again. Bought a few books, talked to a few people, and that led me to now. Reefbuilders came around before i got the 55, and i dont know where i would be without this forum. There are some really awesome people on here that know more about this stuff that i can ever expect to know.

With that being said thanks to everyone on here. You guys(and girls) are awesome.
