Poll: How long have you been reefkeeping?

[stryker]

So I was curious to see how long you guys have been keeping reeftanks?

I know lots of people have been leaving the hobby due to the economy, and I dont know how many newer members we have.

Lets take a quick poll...

Count the estimated number of years keeping saltwater tanks (reef and FOWLR counts too).

:dance:

 

[evad1]

10 years plus

 

[Sinful Aquatics]

2/3 years

 

[solitude127]

5 years for me. I've kept FW for 5 yrs before that.

3-4 years sw, 2 years fresh before sw.

I'm just reaching the 5+ mark for reefkeeping "this time".

I also kept saltwater setups (a 55g and a 10g) in the early 90's (highschool) and I had a "condi" nem in a tank with my green wolf eel. I guess that counts as reefing, right?

So I guess you COULD say that I'm in the 20+ year group.
