Hello

I have three grown children and my hubby is retired military. My son just got called up for active duty so I needed something to keep me busy.
This will be my first saltwater tank. I started it about 6 month ago. At first everything was going fine. Then I did something stupid so I'm starting all over again and trying to get it right this time. Right now all I have in my tank is live sand and live and dead rock. I just got the rock a few weeks ago so I've been testing the water often. So once it cycles I'll be asking lots and lots of questions to keep you all busy. lol
