Hello All,
I just wanted to introduce myself and warn you that i will be a royal pain in your collective read ends for a while. My name is John and I work and live in the Dallas, TX area. I just picked up a 75 gallon acrylic aquarium and stand this weekend and am working on building my first reef tank. I've kept various african cichlids for about 15 years, and have always wanted to do a reef tank. I am an avid scuba diver and watcher of any underwater wildlife special on netflix/amazon, and have always wanted to have my own little reef ecosystem at home to sit in front of with a glass of wine in the evenings and unwind. The amount of work involved to maintain it has kept me away for a while, but i'm ready now.
I spent a couple of hours with an incredible woman at Fish Gallery last week and she answered every noob question i could come up with and was one of the reasons i now have the confidence that i'm ready to tackle this new challenge. She highly recommended i come here and register and start reading some of the information you guys have put together here.
I'll start a thread in the appropriate forum (once i find it) with my build progress and related questions. I'm very happy to be here and look forward to getting to know some of you better and learn from your collective experience!
