Welcome to MAAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also as the others have stated read and read some more. I too will extend my hand if you are local to san antonio as well. And if not I can try to help by phone, email, pm's. I would first decide if you want to go fish only, soft corals or hard corals or some mixture. We are all willing to help. Give us an idea of what you would like to do and we will give you some feedback.

[schoeplein]

Do the same thing you did with your 20g, just in appropriate proportions.
