I just wanted to take this time to say Hello! to everyone at Living Reefs. I am new to the hobby but am very excited. I have a 12 gallon aquapod that I am starting out on. I am ready to learn and watch my tank flourish (hopefully).:D
Welcome! That should be a really fun tank for you to start out with, though I'm sure you will be itching for something bigger in time. Be sure to ask plenty of questions. Questions are better than guessing when it comes to this hobby.
Thanks. I think the budget issue will be a good thing. I am a college student with a minimal budget which will help with the patience I can keep with the tank. If I don't have the money I can't really rush the tank.
