  1. First off we just want to say "Hello!", visited this forum quite a bit for research and insights, finally figured we have a worthy enough tank to post :) 

    Quick intro, my wife Jackie and I (David) have been in the hobby now for a little more than a year now.  We started off with our nano 25g bow front, It's undergone quite the transformation since we started.  We've spent quite a bit of time cutting our reefing chops in a small water column.  Our weekly water tests and water changes, learning about chemistry, corals, fish and pests, really put us through the ringer early on especially when we rushed though adding things (oh how the blame game really gets between two loving reefers).  In truth this love for our tanks has brought us closer together, we've quickly found our "roles" in our relationship and aquarium care.  Jackie is the chemist, fish speaker, health care provider, tinker, me I'm the planning, tech support, heavy lifting, aquascaper it's been a great balance for us.  

    So now we've graduated to our Waterbox 100g and the fun of starting a new tank together has been so rewarding!  We are grateful for this PNW community and all the advice, corals and most of all support... We're happy to be here!         

     Oldie tank 25g known now as "Sick Bay" (its our QT tank)

    What the future holds... probably a bigger tank but I'm getting ahead, in the short term though lots of dosing and hopefully coral growth :)
