Quote: Why can't this be my job?
About Yourself: Always have been around aquariums. Bred guppies and collected creatures in the saltwater flats here with my family growing up. Later, enjoyed African Cichlids. Once I found out that you can have a reef tank that does not involve the destruction of our beautiful real coral reefs, I jumped right in! (Pun intended)
Fish Kept: Too many.. Mostly freshwater.
Corals/Plants: A lot. I'll get back to this.
Tank Size: 47 gallons
Advice: Keep it simple. do not overfeed, and change your water frequently! Secondly, waterflow and lighting are important!
