Hi

I am new here. Joined up yesterday to take part in the frag night, I am from Glasgow in Scotland and our coral choices up here are limited to brown and more brown. I thought I would say hello and post a few pictures. Only have a nano just now, but planning a 4 x 2 x 2. I now have bought most things for my new build except the tank.

Here are a few pics - not to good with the camera!

Yeah can't wait for the bigger one. Still a few decisions to make before I get there. Only have a pair of clowns and a Yellow watchman. Much more interested in coral than fish.

I love the fish but Joey really likes his corals. Our 6ft is going to take us ages to fill but we already have a good selection of fish so its time to concentrate on the corals now!
We live very close to Jason's so are very lucky to have such a selection to choose from.
Good luck with the new tank and when you start please do another thread cause we all like to see things progress......especially the pics!

Welcome to the forum, nice corals by the way.

You may have limited corals in or around Glasgow but one thing you do have and that's one massive angling centre
