Hello from Marietta!

[iam4clemson]

Hey guys...just found this place because someone over at reef central told me about it. Really glad to see an active forum for those of us in the ATL area! I am Allen and am from Marietta...I got out of this hobby about 8 years ago due to a divorce and having to sell everything that I owned, but I have really wanted to step back into the reef keeping hobby lately. I am thinking about going small to start off with...maybe a BioCube 14 gallon with 15 pounds of live rock. Im looking to keep a few clowns and some corals in it (soft of course).

Hoping to learn and glad I found this place!

Glad you found your way here from Reef Central.

You might as well get over the idea of starting with a 14g. Within 6 months you will upgrade sizes at least once.

I started out with a 55... I now have 2x 40B, a 150, and a 300.

You guys are going to force me to go big again...LOL. My last one was a 75 gallon. I DO want to go big, but at the moment, the wallet wont let me. Im gonna start off small...with the 29 gallon, I think, then when Im rolling in cash, Ill upgrade and give the 29 to my little girl.

Welcome aboard!!you can find some really good deals on things here. Maybe that will stretch the budget a little. As far as cash rolling in, let me know how you figured that one out and I'll join you.

 

[iam4clemson]

Cmon over to Keller Williams Realty, Mike...I can get you in the door and YOUR money can start rolling in.
