Fish Crazy
Hello everyone!
Well, I just joined what looks to be your great forum here and am excited about finding more hobbyists who like to 'talk fish', so to speak!
A little about me:
I live in SE Wisconsin (USA) and am married with children. I have to admit that I got interested in this hobby for what is probably for all the wrong reasons - My wife and I finally became annoyed enough about a corner in our living room being too empty, so we went to Walmart under the premise of bringing home sort peice of furniture or even one of those big fake plants. However, while we were in the store, we happened to walk past the pet department and came home with a 55 gallon tank; which fit nicely in that corner. To make a long story short, I ran into all of the usual problems an ill-prepared newbie might...but instead of getting frustrated and giving up, for some reason I felt challenged and wanted to overcome that. Now, about two and a half or three years later, I have kept a number of fish to include both freshwater and saltwater, as well as a planted tank for a short time...basically everything but a brackish tank.
That being said, my hopes are to learn as much as I can from the members and info here, as well as to share my own experiences and what I have learned from them.

You are using a product which replaces all of the trace elements that RO water does not contain....so you are all good and I am a moron for not listening to your ESP message a while back
