Welcome to the Reef! Prepare to be a salt-o-holic. Might as well plan out where your 120 is going to go now and make any necessary home modifications to accommodate. Oh yeah and start that trust fund.

LOL, I love it!! You are definitely not the first person to tell me that. My poor husband. He is still in the Army and currently away from home which means I'm left unsupervised....

Me: Huh, that's crazy hon. I have no idea how that 120 gallon tank got here....

Hello,

Just wanted to say I’m excited to see you have joined our lovely forum. There are tons of super amazing people on here, and they all have an amazing wealth of knowledge.
I can’t wait to see pictures of your new saltwater tank (hint hint lol) and progress of it. You will find there is nothing that compares to the life of a reef in your own home.

I also wanted to say congrats on retirement, and I’m sure it’s very well deserved. Thank you so much for all you have done for everyone and our nation. It’s people like you who really make us a great nation. So thank you for that.

Sincerely
Sarah

Sarah, thank you so much for your kind words. I never intended on joining the military and then it happened. 20 years goes by quickly. I loved every minute of it but it was time to move on. My husband is still serving (21 years for him) so I still get to be part of the community.

The only thing I've added to the tank is a piece of live rock I purchased and I have begun documenting with pictures and I promise to show them off! I have to travel a few hours to a SW LFS so it won't be until this weekend until I can get up there and start planning. For now, the cycling is doing well.

~Thanks again! ~Keisha
