ShawnKoto Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Hi All: I am a new member to ARC. I have had FW tanks for the last year and have had a great time with it. I currently have a 29g African cichlid tank that has been great fun to setup. I made many mistakes along the way and learned a ton. This tank kept me busy for a couple years, but every time I would go to Aqua Dome and go upstairs, I knew it was only a matter of time. However, I knew better than to get started on a whim, so I waited until I had FW experience and a bit of expendable coin before I entered the hobby. I bought a 29g biocube to get started, here is my thread in the build section: http://www.austinreefclub.com/topic/32422-shawns-29g-starter-tank/ I hope to get to meet a lot of you at the monthly meetings. --Shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShawnKoto Posted October 6, 2014 Author Share Posted October 6, 2014 Thanks for all the hospitality! I know that I am going to like this community already. I can't wait for the frag swap so I can get some knowledge dropped on me, and hopefully a few good starter frags as well I have learned a lot through research over the last couple months, but nothing beats experienced folks willing to impart a few situationally specific gems. --Shawn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
