    I'm kind of new to 3reef & reefkeeping. Not new to the fishy side of life though. My name is Daniel and currently live in Bradley Beach, NJ. I'm 24 and kinda stumbled upon aquariums on accident at 20. I've had several cichlid tanks in the past starting with mixing worlds until I became a little more mature and stuck to a Malawi biotype and a separate Tanganikan biotype. I'm still running a 110 African tank back at my parents but was talked into purchasing a 90 reef tank off someone who was over it. The setup is 90 display tank, 100+ lbs of live rock and sand a good handful of fish and corals, with a 20 gallon sump/refuge. I've researched more in 3 months than I have in 16 years of schooling! I'm still freaking out daily over whether or not I'm gonna take out the entire tank. Hoping I can get this thing on a set schedual so I can sit back ans enjoy it one day... Thanks in advance for all the help the members of the forum are sure to give me in the future.

    For those of you joining us that are new to the hobby - the best piece of advice you'll get around here as a saltwater newbie is 3Reef's slogan
    "Go slow, let it grow."
    And for those experianced hobbyists joining us - it's still good advice :p
