I feel so welcome, thanks guys
The recent passing of my father was my main reason to get myself a hobby, especially one that created and sustained life. So I really did rush into it with only perhaps two weeks of research and the reading of a 10 year old saltwater aquarium book. I'm quite happy now to settle right down buying things my tank will soon grow out of (34w fluros/canister filter/undergravel filter) but they have let me get my tank wet and cycling so they did serve a purpose.
As for the podcasts, they're amazing! I found them almost a week back now and have listened all the way up to ep36 so far. They've brought me more info and ideas than browsing a handful of forums and reading a book ten fold. Great work Rob and the TR community, the podcasts are a godsent.
I'm a worker in a medical manufacturing facility. I'm also a fitter and turner (machinist) with access to CNC machines of all types and a whole room full of other cool stuff like 10,000lph
RO/DI units. So I've no doubt all you
DIY folks out there will be hearing from me soon
Thanks again for the warm welcome everyone, aswell as all the very helpful info and tips.
Cheers
