    I just joined, new to the hobby. I am retired after driving truck for 30 years among other jobs. I have a 36 gal. bowfront tank, Pro Flex sump, Marineland Pro 100 skimmer, 35 pounds of live rock, it's fully cycled, had brown algae but cleanup crew cleaned that up, and one sailfin tang so far. Probably only going to have 5 fish total with my reef. Taking it slow. 3 months so far.::)

    Hello and welcome to 3Reef forums. Sounds like you are off to a great start! Would you care to put up some photos of your tank for us to see?

    You can upload images by creating an account with Photobucket (or the like) and then copy and paste the image code(s) to your post. You can have multiple images in one post.

    Welcome to 3reef!

    Congrats on the retirement :thumb_up: Once the reef bug takes hold, you may need to get another job to pay for your reef though ;D

    Thanks for the welcoming. I am enjoying taking care of my little guys (or girls). I have the time to monitor all parameters of their health and find it alot of fun.
