Hey so I finally sank in and am converting my tank to saltwater! So those of you who don't know me I'm Sabra, I'm Steve's/Capn Morgan's Girlfriend, and I've had freshwater fish for over 2.5 years and finally caught the salt water bug this past month. I live in Erda (same street as Thompsons for those of you who know what that is)which is just on the way into Tooele. I have a Boston Terrier who's name is Luna Piggy because she sounds like a pig from her short nose.  I have a 100G Wavefront with a 30G sump. So as soon as I start adding my sand and rocks I'll post some pictures! Well I look forward to working with you guys even more than I already have been.

Haha well actually he didn't, I decided to finally make the change. I've always really liked salt water and I've bought stuff to put in his tank since he started, but I just never really saw myself doing it. Now which one are you? I'm not good with the sign on names, so if I have met you I'm sorry.

Don't let her fool you, it still took a good amount of convincing , she's always been happy to pick stuff out for my tanks, and add corals but she never planned on doing one herself. As of today the wavefront is empty of freshwater fish and ready to be drained so we can start the fun stuff. Everyone has to admit this is an epic win for reefers everywhere! So now it's time for everyone else to get their wives and girlfriends into the hobby!

I'm the red headed Wootton brother. You know the smarter, wittier, and better looking one. We met at Brads house when Adam did that Coral florescence thing.

I wouldnt really consider him being smarter actually our little brother is way smarter than the both of us, wittier.. .yes i will give that to him! .... oh and I'm way better looking (little does he know I pay his wife to tell him he is good looking)
But in all seriousness! Welcome glade you dove in and dove in big. 100g wave front is a call tank!

If you have a Boston then you must be smart! I love my Boston.

Haha ya it's funny how that works. I'm way excited, it just may be a slow process getting it all up and running working it into my schedule, but it'll be way awesome once its done!

My wife had ZERO interest in saltwater aquariums. She thought my venture into it was dumb. With some resistance she finally let me put it in the family room. As time went on she warmed up to it. Now I catch her staring at it. There is a mushroom and a fish in there that are "hers". The other day she suggested we save up for a 90 gal.  so we can get tangs and this and that.
Welcome to this wonderful corner of the world.
BTW we've met, I have come over to Steve's on occation to get stuff. I'm the only Grantsville one here. (I think)
