Hey Everyone,
 
I was referred to utahreefs by my friend Dexta, who was the one who helped me get into the hobby. I have had my tank setup for almost two months now and things are going suprisingly well, and I haven't seemed to kill any fish with my impatience (yet). I have a 55 Gallon Tank and about a 20 gallon sump. I have been looking through the forums since I started and finally decided to join in. Thanks to people on the forum (Chad and Dexta particularly) I have been able to setup my little part of the ocean without going broke doing so. I have a family with a six year old son and a baby on the way. My Son loves the tank as much as I do and I think that my wife is finally starting to come around also. I am looking forward to being part of the community and hopefully start going to the meetings and getting to know everyone.

Yeah my son loves the fish.. He isn't allowed to watch finding nemo anymore because I think I am about at capacity lol. Now I want to start getting into corals though. So I guess I'm in it for the long haul.

My 8 year old has claim on "plants" that are his as well as fish that are his. It's fun.
