Hello SCR community! My name is Sean, I'm new to the game and still trying to master the art of convincing your spouse that this hobby isn't that expensive :loldude: I've been interested in this hobby for A while now but bearly got started on a tank roughly 2 months ago. I currently have a 60g mixes reef cube consisting about 5 fish, few inverts and majority soft/Lps
Corals. I recently attended the MAX expo recently and probably met a few of you guys but couldn't match the name with face. Most of the people I know that are into reefing are either in OC or IE. would love to chill with some locals, im sure my gf is getting tired of hearing all this fish talk. Ill try to post some pics of the tank when I get home, nice meeting you all.

Shout out to my buddy Chris who helped me in the beginning and told me about this forum

Welcome nice to have you here. Ask any questions you want and hopefully we can hell you. Even though Al seems all nice he's really just a bitter gas meter man. Check out how he looks when you say hello to him.

Welcome to the gang. Ask as many questions as you can and remember to have a sense of humor. It will keep you sane here. Also don't drink anything Chris gives you. He's crazy, like Walt Whitman from Breaking Bad, crazy. Just look at him!

lol I'll be sure to watch out for Al and Chris, I'm a alcoholic so I don't mind the drinks! As promised, here are a few pics, excuse my noobness on placement. I have frags randomly located everywhere as I'm still not sure which ones to keep. Tank is still fairly new at under 2months, first time reefer. And excuse my crappy Iphone pics.

Welcome Sean, convincing the wife is easy.

1.) Never tell her how much things cost.

2.) always tell her you got it in trade.

3.) give her some money to shop while you go to the meetings and shows. Then she'll look forward to RAP and MAX as much as you will.
