Iam 54 and had my first salt tank in 1974.It was a 110gal. undergravel filter,skimmer(air) ozone, ehiem filter,rock not live.Flame angle 90$.I also had a hawksbill sea turtle that the exporter shipped a bag full to ancient mariner(lfs) to see if they would send them money.I had it for about 1 year and she got to big and started chasing my flame so I gave it to Vancouver aquarium they raised her to breading size and gave her to Japan for breading.

I'm 36 and we had a B&W TV as a youngster. I think we were one of the last families around to get a colour TV. I've been keeping S/W for 5 years.

I'm in the 40+ group but started reefing in my 30+ days. I'm sure there are more of us "older" reefers out there but just more secretive or just can't figure out that #@@##!!! internet.

I'm **, but those who have met me probably think I'm in my early 20's. I started my first reef in 1993 it also had an UGF (under-gravel filter), a Skilter 250 "protein skimmer", 18w of T8 lighting, and a Condy anemone that didn't appreciate any of that.

This was my expectation also. I wonder if this poll shows us a skewed view of the cross section of reefers... people in the 40+ demographic may be less inclined to use electronic message boards.

This poll does show us a cross section of this message board's members though, good enough for me

I'm 26. I'm new to saltwater. I've done fresh water most of my live.
