oppppss...am I allowed to change my advice..didn't really think about it that way......its summer my brain shut off..hehe..

that's great advice Albert.

Kris as Prince of the upgrades you should know this
I expect Kris to have a 500 gallon tank by the time he's graduated college.

starting with a smaller tank makes sense. better to make a mistake in a smaller tank, than one stocked with tons of livestock.

 

[bad coffee]

But not too small of a tank. I started with a 15 gallon, and it's a good thing I'm a bit OCD. I was checking the tank 2-3 times a day, worring about it. Once I got a litermeter, I was set!

I think a 75 is a good size tank to setup. Spyro had one for sale cheap a while back. Check the forsale threads.

Agreed, what Albert said was true.

John, Now if I'm the Prince whose the King?? 500 gallon tank...I can dream. Lets see how the cash starts flowing in.


With me I bought and changed things so constantly I scared myself. My current tank started of as a 15g, then went to a 55g, then went down to a 30g, and is now a 65g. This all happened over the course of about 10months to a year but I learned alot from it all. I guess it's safe to say Take Your Time.

And don't forget Kris...even your 65g is being upgraded to a 65g RR! Talk about taking incremental steps.

Mike,

It was very nice meeting you and your beautiful girlfriend today (even though you both managed to sneak up on me).

I hope you enjoy the books (and the bag )

As always, if you need anything, let us know.
