It's great to have you here.  Get ready to make some new friends.  This Saturday's reef tour will be awesome and I'm sure you'll see some great tanks and people in your area.  

Moving + breaking a leg = a pretty rough start I would imagine

If your friends told you to "break a leg" when you moved, they didn't mean litereally.. LOL

Good to have you here! I think you'll find that people here are very helpful and informative. Sorry to hear about your leg, that really sucks, especially so soon after moving here.

If you can, I would definitely go around and see the tanks on the Reef Tour. You'll meet lots of people and see amazing tanks.

Good luck and welcome!

Anne

thanks for the welcome. breaking my leg was pretty rough on me. but always keep moving forward. i cant wait for sat. my fiancee and i started a reef tank down here because she works in the biology building at the U and they have a 200, 55 and 30 gal all salt water and she fell in love and i had a small 9 gal native saltwater tank back home in washington so i told her lets do it. she loves it more then i do and i have been into freshwater for 15+ years and salt only a couple years. but its hard to expand my tank with my low income due to this stupid leg now. but trying my best. have met some great people down here that have giving me great deals on coral for cheap or have helped me out by just giving me some starters for free and they improve the look of my tank by a ton even though the pic doesnt give it justice.

My tanks?  I'm guessing Cameron's tanks (Kings).  Are they on floor 100?  If she thinks that is great... just wait.  I'm getting ready for a new 300 display in South Bio.  

Can I ask... who is your fiancee?  

Anyway I'm always here so I'm sure we'll meet soon.

Come on over anytime.  In fact, lend a hand LOL

I must be getting old.  Nowadays I have my students carry the heavy tanks while I supervise.
