New to reefing

Hello everyone, just wanted to take a minute and introduce myself. I'm Ashlee, 23, live in New Jersey and go to Rutgers University. I just recently determined that I am fascinated by salt water fish and would definitely like to start up a reef tank in the future. I have no room to set up a tank where I am now, but I plan on moving soon, and hopefully I can start one up shortly after. For now I plan on researching all I can so when the time comes I know all I need to know. Probably won't post much as I know nothing, but I will for sure be lurking a lot because you guys have such great information.

Re: New to reefing

Hi Ashlee, this is kinda funny but I live in North Brunswick and my gf goes to Rutgers in the grad program. If you like looking at fish and corals there is a great store in Hamilton called Allquatics. It would prob be about a 40 min drive for you from the University, but they have a lot of nice displays and the one owner Carlo is great and would answer all your questions. Also there is a great website for people from NJ. It is The New Jersey Reefers Club - Home
