    Just wanted to get some ideas of how long I will remain at the rank of "Newbie".;D I just started a 46 gal bowfront reef tank with live rock/sand in July. Also, what comes after the "newbie" rank? :huh:

    Mr Crabs,

    In all seriousness, that's a good question :)

    I think after Newbie comes Victim and then Addict :)

    Yes, John...victim is next....

    I saw somewhere, that when you can remove a 3 plus inch mantis shrimp from your tank without requiring sutures...you are no longer a Newbie.... ;D ;D

    Re: What comes after the status of "Newbie&am

    Danke for zee responses to meine Newbie question.
    However, I think I am quickly advancing up zee "ranks" with being a "Victim" to mein so called friends at zee LSF. Also, I am becoming "Addicted" in buying "livestock" when ever a new shipment arrives at the LSF. Other signs are that I stay up late at night reading books and magazines about Marine fish, corals, and inverts. Also, my weekly "small volume" water changes are occurring in less than a week ... gotta go, I think I need to do a water change and get back to the new issue of "Coral". :-[
