Ziggi March 22, 2016 March 22, 2016 (edited) ... well, not the hobby so much! Hewwo everyone! I'm Zi from Silver Spring, MD. I ran across this forum a year or two ago while looking for clubs and stores in the area, but didnt join until now after a lady I purchased a light from suggested it. I'm not a complete stranger to aquatics, as I've had several planted freshwater tanks over the past 9 years, but jumped into the salty world after a nice Craigslist deal (entire 55 gal set up: light, filters, skimmer, sand, rocks, stand, glass lid, chemical stuffs... more stuffs for $75 I'm inexperienced, but no fool! ) but maybe 6-8 months after starting it up, I ran into some issues and life got in the way, so the tank's been shut down for about a year after running for ... about a year. (fortunately, I followed the advice of my other aquatic friends so only lost livestock were a few "indestructible" corals and 3 snails.... but that happened before I shut the tank down!... poor things regardless ) I dont remember what got me jump started again, but, here I am I'd rather say "second time is the charm", not "3rd" though! I'm currently in process of building a 29 gallon sump-fugium to hook onto the 55 gal display, hope to keep a low fish stock so I dont get too carried away, and I'm going to try to purchase everything through local stores and you fellow reefers! Anywho, Happy to have finally joined, so again I say, Hewwo, Everyone!!! Edited March 22, 2016 by Ziggi

greengalaxy March 25, 2016 March 25, 2016 Welcome im still pretty new here too, but you'll love this community
Ziggi March 26, 2016 Author March 26, 2016 Thank you all for such a warm welcome! I should go ahead and put the disclaimer out there, I ask a LOT of questions ... half the time it's clarification cause I end up answering then arguing against my own answer... all in the same post. There's a special degree of talent in this one here. Just ya'll wait and see! I'll be adding to the build section soon enough. I've got a lot of clean up to do first..... no, first I need to get past this holiday! Busy weekend, hehe! Anywho, Happy Easter everyone!
