I first got into tanks when growing up in Cali, had a friend who's family ran a shop in Anahiem and fell in love with fish. Since then growing up in the LA area and then Seattle you couldn't keep me away from the local Aquariums. I had the various freshwater setups off and on but always wanted a saltwater, but couldn't both because of cost and time restraints.
Until just recently I finally talked my wife into letting me venture into the hobby I longed for most of my life. Now I am disabled and have the time and working on the cost issue. My first tank now is a 30 gal Biocube and learning more as time goes, learning you can't always rely on store employees because they are trying to make a living, but thanks to this forum and a member am finding out the best ways to get my fish and other residences the best environment for their longetivity.
Thank you!
Larry
