My name is Ian and I love nanoreefs! Its so addicting and I would love nothing more than to make it a career (aquaculture, fishstore, whatever as long as Im near corals and clams
).I have been into saltwater since 10 and man it was hard then, with a 10g standard and some mushrooms and chromis. I have had 4 tanks over the years, a 10g starter, 29g, then a 40g, THEN a 55g, and now a Finnex 30g and frag/sump tank. I am almost 16 and live in the wonderful state of Texas. I love to run and would be right now if I didn't have mono
. I run XC at the varsity level, and the 400,800, and mile, with the 800 my personal favorite. I am a sophmore btw. I love reading and hanging out with my friends, goofing around, and making sure I have a good education (funny now to some, that is until im their boss someday
). If you want to see my whipping some kids in a 800m my freshman year with a 2:00 800m, click my name. Btw I passed out on the line. <-- by luck only

Thanks for the info guys. While I'm on work release from Lompoc, I'm a stalker.

Lompoc?!(For those not familiar, it's pronounced Lompoke, not Lompock). Growing up, my uncle lived in Lompoc and worked at Vandenburg AFB. Visited him 3-4 times a year. He always had some interesting trip to take us on. Just to mention one was Shark Tooth Hill. About 20+ miles inland from the ocean, this ancient fossil bed contained tons of fossil shark teeth. Just a little digging and you could get quite a collection.
And then there was the bronze cannon his scuba diving club raised from the sunken reck of the "Yankee Blade".
Always something great going on. May he RIP. I miss him.

alright I can play along too!
My Name is Collin and I am 19. Birthday is June 20th ('89) I have a 10g Fresh water tank and then my 14g SW cube. I live in CT... not much to do in this place as many fellow Ct people will tell you. I have been in a committed relationship for... god only knows how long haha almost 2 years I believe?? She is not only my best friend but an amazing person. I am currently a student at MCC (Manchester Community College) and will be transferring next year to CCSU (Centeral Conn. State Uni.) I drive a silver 2003 Dodge Dakota, and spend many hours messing around with it and adding some go faster parts to it :D I have recently started my collection of DVD's. I only have a couple dozen of them tho, but hey you have to start somewhere! besides the normal at home life I go out all the time with friends and just hang out or see how much trouble we can get into :D
anything else I didn't cover just ask
my truck in its most common state.. up on jacks getting worked on to go faster :D

then its go fast state

this trip might not have been 100% legal.. lol

Porkchop48 - my father was born in Weirton, WV. My grandfather worked in the mines until he got blacklung disease. Just prior to WWII, my uncles were in the Navy and stationed in Southern California. The climate was drier there and better for grandpa's health so the moved out there in the mid to late 30's.
Never been to Weirton, but would like to know more about it.

This is fun.
My names Jeff, 18 years old. I attend Florida Atlantic University currently, and plan on getting a degree in Accounting (havent decided on the specifics yet). I like to play paintball (duh), and my tank and xbox are my stress relievers. I drive a 07 VW Jetta, and I dont know what else to say.
Ive been in fish tanks ever since I can remember. My dad had a 55 gallon, which seemed so big when you cant see over the stand. He had an underground filter, all the latest tech haha. He kept tangs and all that, not knowing any better. Ive had little freshwater tanks for my room, and this is the first tank where Ive taken time to research things, and Im extremely happy to say the least. I used to be a pretty addictive gamer, as sad as that sounds. My tank helps me keep my mind where it should be, and I love watching things thrive and feeding them and all the aspects of keeping a tank. As long as everybody gets along in there, then Im set :)
One of the youngins that can actually say, my parents have never bought me a thing for it. I work at Gamestop currently, always looking for a better job haha.
Sorry this sounds hella boring, bad writer for the win!
