Im 21 also, got into it when I was 17, saw an ad on craigslist for a SW setup for 100bucks fully loaded and I just HAD to get it, fell in LOVE with it! The rest is history, 6 tanks later.

Hey....I think you are referring to Marcus... and, I'm pretty sure he was at the meeting on his own. He was very pumped about everything. He's 16 if I remember correctly. He even donated a coral to the fragging demonstration....Duncans....that Karin ended up with.
Anyways, it's so cool to see so many young reef keepers! The NEXT GEN!
"Young reefers......stay away from credit cards!!! If you don't have cash, don't buy it." There, now I can sleep better at night, knowing that I passed on my wealth of knowledge to the youth of the club.

There was a person last year that was posting about a tank in Austin. I want to say that person was 14 or so. I can't remember the name of the user though.
