New in here.
Hello people. I'm basically new to SW. I have read a bunch on it and I plan on moving my puffer from brackish to full marine soon. I came to you guys cause I heard that local clubs are much safer to get LR from and maybe a used skimmer
 I still don't have my tank yet either, so I'm in no hurry, just gonna do it right.  I unfortunately won't be needing anything along the lines of corals, cause I just can't afford them and their lighting. thanks for any help.  |

Re: New in here.
welcome and good to have you. if you want to "do it right" then keep reading asking questions. there are a lot of smart people here and they give good advice. you have a wealth of info right there in C-falls in Charlie. he knows his stuff. if you can make it, come to the next meeting.
hope to see you there |

Re: New in here.
I didn't know Charlie lived here?! I've been reading lots of posts, and learning.
... where is your next meeting? I tried to find it, but got confused in that thread.  |

Welcome to Reef Land. If you not in a rush and want live rock you could make your own, I have made a lot for my tank.

Re: New in here.
my biggest tank is a 55 but it's FW. my brackish tank is a 20gal long. and I have a few little biotype 10gal. I'm looking at getting a 30 or 40 to setup as SW, I know that's small, but i don't mind doing the extra work to keep the water stable. the reason I'm not getting a big tank like I want, is because I still live at home (in my senior year at CFHS) and my mom was a bit upset when I told her I was going to put even more water in my upstairs bedroom.
I am always open to suggestions though, so if you guys have any idea or anything, just let me know. |

Re: New in here.
Are you planning on heading to college, that may make a difference as to what you want to do. You definitely don't want to get to large of a deal going then have to give it up.
