WOW, its Doogie Hauser of the aquarium world! When I was 12, yes I had a tank but I think I had some fresh water frogs and zebra danios. I did not have my first salt tank until I was 17 and, that was 18 yrs ago. Hmmm, I wonder if I called up my mom tonight if she might fund my saltwater addiction :D Its nice to know people of all ages are into this and, good luck 2u.

WOW! Thats alot of pets there! Thanks BoBoSkater! I wish i could work at a LFS,but the problem is there isnt any LFS were i live. I have to order online or get my dad to drive me a hour to get to a fish store(he likes going to since i got him addicted to reefing). And and...pictures!!!

Oh and my dad found a company that will sand blast my stand! After its all sand blasted and painted,we are going to get a friend to make us a wooden cover for the stand so it will look nicer.

Man NO LFS that must suck I have like 5 I like a 20-30drive. Sorry if you have already said this, but are you going to drill the tank or have a HOB?

malawi freak-this is about a lil of both...lol. BTW thanks!

 

BoBoSkater-yeah,it does suck. Im going to have a HOB overflow and the returns will go over the tank of the tank. My dad says i cant have a sump/refugium or any of that stuff,cause he dont want the sump over flowing or the tank overflowing,but im going to rig it up so when the power goes out the overflow wont overflow alot of water to make the sump overflow,and im going to make it so when the power comes back on the return pump doesnt come on and it overflows the tank(cause the siphon overflow does not turn on when the power comes back on). And im going to have a heater in the main tank just in case the power does turn off,cause the heater is in the sump and will only heat that water so if i have one in the main tank it will keep the tank heated.

Im 15 and i have a 20 g.

 

Im also thinking about upgrading my tank to a 50g+.

 

Its good to have parents in the hobby. My dad has 72g sw tank and we just swap frags and stuff. It's pretty tight.

 

Keep up the good work!
