Comments: |
I
started my first marine tank in 2001 with a 30 gallon Oceanic. I was
just going to do fish only... but I caught the bug...and then spread it
to other people as well. I began adding live rock and skimmers...etc.
Before I know it I was setting up my new tank. This tank was
started in June 2002. I began adding SPS corals in Sept of 2002 and I am
now addicted adding more and more monthly.
So as simple as
that sounds, that is about it. I have had my good and bad choices. And
believe me....you will to, but it is like I always say..........

make mistakes....the Good things in life are signs of learning!" |
