    Hi,

    I finally took the plunge and bought myself an aquapod 24. I took care of large saltwater tanks in the early 90's, and reef tanks recently of friends and family. I always stayed away from owning one myself, until I learned the practicality of some reef systems. I am facinated by corals mostly, and don't know much about saltwater fish. I have owned freshwater tanks for over ten years, up to 280 gal mini pond, but was just to scared to kill any coral. I take it pretty hard when my fish die. It's taken me two years since my Oscar passed (somehow the thermometer broke and released mercury in the tank) to consider starting up again. So I finally did it, and I'm already so happy I did. My tank is 3 days into cycle and I have all kinds of growth on my LR. I hope the experience just gets better.

    Welcome! Dont sweat it about loosing corals... the more you read about them, the easier they are to take care of :) Just ask us questions and research, research, research!
