Diving back into saltwater..

Hello everyone!
My name is Kayce and I am currently stationed over at Yokosuka Naval Base, Yokosuka Japan. Lets just say that it has been an.. interesting experience trying to get started back into saltwater tanks over here. :-/
I also have three children, three and under who really like to "help".
Last week I started up an 8 gallon (we think that is what it turns out to be) with live sand and I right at 13.2 lbs of live rock. The rock over here is awesome, with all kinds of interesting things on it. I even ended up with what I believe is an orange sea squirt. I will be getting lot of pictures here soon posting them, so hopefully I can get help IDing things. I have been busy reading posts and looking things up on several forums for the past couple of weeks and 3reef seems to be the friendliest and most informative one around.
I hope to make new friends and to catch up on all the things that have changed since I last had a SW tank.
Cheers!!

 

Welcome back to the SW community! I know what you mean about the kids wanting to "help" mine are the same way. Best of luck to you. With an 8 gallon tank it will keep you busy make sure you keep up with those water changes. Cheers!
