I'm bored at work watching youtube and doing random reef research and I'm watching a video and they were talking about how long they've been in the hobby and they talked about how they were started at 5 with a freshwater tank so I figured I'd throw it out for discussion.
I've always had a tank growing up. My dad has a freshwater tank with angels. I had tons of freshwater tanks on my own including at one point 4 or 5 freshwater tanks at my parents house. I remember finally dipping my toes in saltwater when I still shared a room with my brother when I was in middle school. I had a 20 gallon long tank with CFL bulbs, crushed corals, fake sythetic colored corals and a HOB filter skimmer with a few yellow tailed damsels and clowns. I remember getting a LTA and it dying when it rested up against the heater in the tank and crashing the tank...
Feel free to come along on the ride down memory lane...
