    Hello to everyone!
    I came across this site a few weeks ago and find it to be fantastic. I have been in the salt water hobby for almost a year now. We keep adding more and more, does it ever end? Currently in this house we have a 6G, 12G, 24G nanos and a 55G, with a sump.
    One thing I have learned in this business is never trust one person's opinion. Do your research and keep asking questions.
    My current 55 is something I have learned the hard way. I made a stupid mistake and I am still paying for it. I used brass fittings on my connectors.
    Dumb move, but I didn't think hard enough on it. I know copper and corals don't mix but I am here to tell you, brass and corals don't mix either.
    Well Live and Learn.

    I came across a string about Otty's build and it was fantastic, great job! The thing or should I say the person that struck me with a sense of awe is Tangster. His views are refreshing, candid and down to earth.

    Look forward to visiting the forums and seeing what is going on1
    Thank you for the great site.

    Thank you for the warm welcome! I will post some pics very soon. You guys can't see my mess of a 55 yet. It is going but nothing to be proud of. Pretty barren.
