Want to introduce myself...

Hi guys

Wanted to introduce myself. My name is Erick. I also answer to Gary Gnu. Some of you may remember Gary Gnu from The Great Space Coaster, a show that entertained 10 year old children in the early 80s. Anyway I have spent the last year or so reading 100s of hours worth of posts on RC and 100s of seconds writing my own posts. I love this community for it's wealth of information and would like to start giving back whatever I may have to offer.

I started this crazy game in 94' and have had a variety of adventures getting in and out of the hobby. My current setup is about 100 total gallons. My DT is about 99% sps corals, fish, and inverts.

I am in the process of setting up an ~500 ga DT. Two months ago I was really ready to dive in when my wife informed me that she wanted to move. So.... You guessed it. We are moving and the tank is on hold for now. It is a very nice tank that I picked up from Brad Blankenship who is this months tank of the month recipient. We are moving to Cazenovia which is a small town east of Syracuse.

There is so much info I could post about my set up, current and future so instead I will start with some pics. I read a post on how to use photo bucket but I am having trouble. I will give a try but if it doesn't work please chime in if you know what I am doing incorrectly.

Nice Eric.Great to see a new memeber in or around our neck of the woods here in Syracuse.Me, I'm from Ononadaga Hill not to far from you.Theres some other regulars here close by that Im sure will be along to welcome you.
I grew up in the 8o's as a teenager and I think the show has a familiar ring to it.
Caz' is gorgeous, truly awesome lake ,and a really nice area to live ,love small towns with shops in the village like they have there,too.

I cant imagine what a 500 what look like stocked but I'd love to see it sometime.Goodluck to you and yours -Steve
