Ironically, my entry into the reef tank hobby did not grow out of a lifelong passion for aquarium keeping. I've always had an affinity for the Natural World. When I was young, I loved goldfish but they would all die on the first day. I had no help or father figure to teach me.  I was devastated.  Not wanting to kill anymore goldfish, I abandoned the hobby.

At 21, I found a  beautiful 46g oceanic bow front fish tank discarded.  I thought “what a waste”, so I took it home. I was hooked from there; I had ghost knife fish, Columbian shark catfish, tiger catfish, silver dollars, and my  all time favorite the Malawi blue dolphin cichlid. I had never maintained a marine tank of any kind and  yet here I had my ultimate freshwater community  tank.
  


 I digressed to a 230g Reef Tank (74 L x 24 H x 30 D) with a 45g wet/dry designed by my friend Erick. I built the stand with aid from Erick. The Plumbing was a combination of experimentation and trials and errors which resulted in my first ever saltwater tank. On July 19, 2010 my tank went online and the overwhelming world of salt water became my passion. I went to work tackling this monster of a challenge and bought my first trio of corals from my friend Alex who I met during this adventure. The yellow brick road didn't stop there so.....
