So I have been lurking around here for about a month with a couple of posts. I guess I should Introduce my self.
Hello My name is Brent,
I grew up in a house that always had a freshwater tank and every time we went to the fish store I found myself always drawn to the saltwater section. When I had some extra cash after paying off my student loans I decided to start my very own fish tank and immediately knew I wanted a mixed reef tank. I bought a tank stand and some equipment from craigslist and took it all to my LFS to see what else I would need and get a bit of advise as to where to start. It wasn't until I was set up and started cycling that I found this forum and all of the knowledge it contains. I started my tank about 1 month ago and since then I have done nothing but research and weigh my options as to what to do with my tank. I am very excited about the community here on Reef Central and especially the community in SLASH and cant wait to put faces with usernames. I fully anticipate becoming a member at the Feb 26 pizza meeting and plan on going to the frag swap in March.
The more I lurk the more I hear about the Coral Donor Program. which brings me to my questions. Is there a central tank somewhere which contains all of these awesome corals? do I need to donate corals to receive corals?(as I have exactly 0 corals right now) How do I obtain such corals? and what corals are available?
This is one of the many things that have drawn me to SLASH and I cant wait to be involved in a fun and helpful community.
Thanks in advance for your understanding and help.
