    Default Introducing myself from Florida

    Hello all, dang glad to be here.

    I am temporarily taking care of my teenage sons several tanks, fresh and one reef - for the last several months, and will continue...

    I was born and raised in Lakeland and Winter Park FL and now live in Lake Mary, but had a few years in Milwaukee so got a taste of that. Great for kids, not so much for me as an adult, lol.
    I'm a business owner and family man who goes to church, has 2 kids in their teens, 4 dogs (2 boxers, a peke and pug) and a loving wife.
    I enjoy boating and fishing for Bass, dirtbiking, aquariums, puttering, all water sports, and fixing things.

    Greg, even though this is your son's tank, you seem have been bitten by the bug. Some folks get cured from the infection the bug introduces, but some do not. I never managed to beat it.

    It's great that you like it here. I hope you stay for a very long time.

    Thank you all, @jeep, @seanyuki and Liz. I have decided when I'm an empty-nester, I'm absolutely going to have a tank and I've found Discus the most graceful of fish, and their size and color is mesmerizing to me.

    Not sure how active I'll be in the coming months but I'll be here watching and learning! I sure appreciate the sharing !!

    Hi Gregg, great to see you on the forum. I’m fairly close to you in the Lake Nona area of Orlando and Liz is right, once the bug hits it is hard to step away. Seeing hi from one native Floridian to another.
