    Hello ladies and gentalmen!
    My name, if you havent gathered from my clever username, is Jakob. :) I have recently moved and tore down my 55g Cichlid tank, which my father has since taken all of my wildlife from the tank and gave it a new, larger, home.
    In the meantime i am setting up a marine tank, i am fairly new at this, although my dad has been into it for a while and has set me up with the necessary live rock, sand, and also he hooked me up with a few MH reef fixtures with T5Ho's and also some Lunar led's, I got a pretty sweet deal on it and i hope to have the tank up and running in a week or so.
    I know im going to have many questions, and im also up for any suggestions or comments.
    Thanks in advance and im glad to be abord!

    Welcome to 3reef! I have a theory, developed from a tested hypothesis, that success in freshwater inevitably leads to interest in saltwater. So thanks for your additional validation.. :D
