My name is Mike, I have been in the aquarium keeping hobby roughly 5 years. Started with a planted freshwater tank and finally gave in to a friends pressure to give saltwater a shot. Instantly I was hooked. I started with a 36 gallon bow front, went on to a 46 bow front and I am currently in the process of setting up a 90 gallon acrylic with a 40 sump. Shortly I will start a build thread, as I have tons of pictures. This is my first real tank IMO... my others I just ran a HOB skimmer and performed water changes. I have done so much research for this tank I think my head might explode. I learned some basic woodworking skills, some plumbing skill and picked up on so many things that will hopefully help me down the road. Look forward to speaking with all my fellow members.
