Hello everyone. I am Ian from Drums, PA. I retired from the navy in 2010 after 20 years. On April 1 this year I was diagnosed with cancer and decided that I needed something to stare at other than the TV while I am recovering from chemo.
I set up my first saltwater fish tank little less than a month ago. It hasn't cycled yet of course and just has the regular little damsels in it. My plan right now is to keep it simple and just have a fish only tank. Because of that I think I chose the wrong forum to join seeing as how this is a reef forum, just like the name says. But, assuming everything goes right with my tank and I don't have any problems, I don't know how long just one tank is going to satisfy me. Seeing all the pictures of the beautiful coral and learning how to take care of them I think it's very safe to say that within a year or so I'm going to want a reef tank. So in that respect I think I'm in the right place.
I am really looking forward to reading all the different posts and seeing how to do things correctly. And, pretty much just as important, how to not do things incorrectly.
