    Hi Everyone,

    I just wanted to say "Hi" to everyone and introduce myself. My name is Chris and I'm an addict;D I've been addicted to reefing for a little over 2 years now, since my wife got me hooked by forcing me to buy a 12 gallon SW Eclipse for my oldest son's 1st birthday 2 years ago.

    I currently have 3 tanks.. A 95 gallon Oceanic Wave tank mixed reef and a 12 gallon Aquapod planted marine tank currently getting ready for a pair of H. Fuscus Seahorses. Lastly, my favorite tank which is a 24 gallon AP that houses most of my nice corals.

    I really enjoy this hobby because of it's calming and relaxing affect I get when I work and look at the systems. Growing your own corals and wonders of the ocean in your living room is extremely facinating to me. My wife didn't know what she was getting herself into. She calls my tanks my mistress..haha Look forward to talking to you guys.

    Chris

    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
    good luck and post pics soon :)
