    Good Morning!

    Wanted to send a gracious Hello and Thank you for hosting such an informative forum. As I am sure most have done, I searched many forums to find a place that was informative, expertly established and housed numerous ideas for the SW enthusiast. I am hopeful I can continue my excessively expensive quest for the perfect SW habitat.

    I have been an amateur since the early 80's when Eheim and Lifeguard were your selections. Created my own wet/dry systems out of 10 gal. tanks and whatever acrylic and glass I could find. Managed to keep fish alive for years to suddenly loose the stock in days. Then came college and grad school and no more money. I left the hobby for 15 years and now I'm back. Unfortunately, still no money.:-[ After reading various threads on this forum I have realized how so much has changed. Lighting, refuges, etc.. and know I have a lot to catch up on. So as I reach for the visine, I Thank you all for your knowledge and commitment and hope I don't go blind catching up on the last 15 years.


    Regards, Snowby :cheesy:
