Hi my name is Paul,

I have learned of this forum for the local fish store guy and I have been lurking around reading as much as I can about this hobby. I'm getting ready to graduate and I'm looking for a hobby. I have a 30 gallon fresh water tank running successfully for 5 years and I want to take it to the next level. I'm really about 6 months out or so for putting my first tank together and I want to learn as much as possible as to not kill any animals. I would like to do a reef tank with fish may 90 to 100 gallons. Before going to school I was a carpenter for ten years or so. This being said I probably will build my own stand. I hope you guys and girls don't mind if I ask some questions for awhile, tell first I figure out where I will be working after graduation and second get the wife's ok  Wink to start this project. 
As lurker I have read and seen some great stuff that has already helped me understand a little more about this hobby and it does seem like a great environment for learning here. 

So thank you for the information Clap
