Default Newbies FTS thread!

Ok so I have been thinking about starting this thread for quite a long time now so thought its about time

Anyway so there's all sort of threads with experienced reefers showing their wonderful DTs and systems and us, newbies, are left with tanks, wondering when we will reach their awesomeness.

So, nothing is better than showing off new tanks to both new and experienced reefers/salties, get criticized or admired, share horror stories and such.

After all, we are the reefers/salties of next generation

Some rules that I thought of to keep this thread fun

1. Tank should be less than a year
2. This thread is for newbies FTS and ONLY for newbies FTS.
3. Experienced reefers are more than welcome to judge, criticize, flame, admire, post suggestions and so on. Alongside, they are also welcome to show off their DTs/systems to inspire or to explain stuffs
4. Please no personal insult

I hope this thread will be lively

Cheers

Haha. I knew you would ask something like that I was thinking of putting something like "kien cannot show off his DT over here" JK

Well newbie is just newbie; no definition required I guess. But for official purpose,

"Someone who has recently (within a year at max) been mesmerized by the wonderful world of marine lives and started the journey into saltwater hobby and looks around for inspiration like Kien's tank, hoping to end up with something awesome"

That should put up the image right?

I'd define "Newbie"as someone who has been in the hobby for less than a year because generally speaking after a yr you should sort of know what your doing
