About Yourself:
Started out with tropicals then tried marine 3 months to date, love marines however take up a lot of time & can be expensive but a lot more satisfying than tropical.
Electrical engineer by trade & love the chemistry of it all.

Corals/Plants:

Advice:
Take your time, its very easy to get carried away with fish & inverts and stock too many too quickly, my advice is 1 fish per week & check the water conditions so as not to overstock.
