The beginnings of my reef tank

[barry769]

Well I went to my LFS today to have them test my water for me. (As I mentioned before I'm slightly colorblind) The guy there told me that everything was at zero and looking good. He suggested that I wait until the end of the week though, come back in and if everything is still zero, buy my first live creature. Since I'm bored, I figured I would leave you all with a picture of what I get to stare at all day (my girlfriend makes fun of me for being fascinated by rocks).

Yeah you're telling me...I can't tell you how many times a day I hear someone in my house ask me
"So why aren't there any fish in it yet, aren't you planning on making it into a fish tank, its been 3 weeks???"
"Just wait, by this time next year it should be looking pretty good, if i put anything in there now it will die and I'll have to wait even longer."
"WHAT??? NEXT YEAR???"
You have to love the patience of the uninformed.
