About Yourself:
I went with a buddy to look at a fish tank some guy was selling dirt cheap on craigslist. It was the wrong color for my buddy, but he told me it was such a bargain that I should buy it. Some bargain....I can't begin to start adding up the $$$ I've spent since buying this tank.
Fish Kept:
Flame hawkfish, yellow tang, sebae clownfish, 2 black damsels, purple pseudochromis, lawnmower blenny, sea hare
Corals/Plants:
2 rose bubble tip anemones, 1 kenya tree coral, 1 cabbage leather coral

46 gallons
Advice:
Don't rush it. Time is of the essence. Let your tank age before adding fish. Read up on the different species and make sure they'll be compatible. Don't add them all at once.

Salt water enthusiast new to the hobby, any advice will be greatly appriciated.

Tank Size:
75 gallons
Advice:
Start Slow... Read, Research, and Research again! Find a reliable source. Try not to reley to much on fish stores because (most, not all) only care about making money and will sell you things you don't need and over price for saltwater tank equipment.
Ask lots of questions on this site.
Please take your time! I have spent a lot of money on fish and half of them died because I did not let my tank cycle and mature properly (LACK OF KNOWLEDGE and PATIENCE.) Don't get discouraged and stay with it. This hobby can be very demanding; however, once you develop a system, it will get easier.
