Hi, I am relatively new in the marine aquarium and reefing arena. Thanks to this forum for the active members sharing. Been planning, researching and mentally prepares for having this newest hobby of mine.

Recently, abt 3wks ago, bought a second hand shallow 4ft tank frm fellow reefer.

Arrange a tank mover, Neo, for the transfer.

And within 30mins, the tank is already in my home. Fast and professional service by bro Neo.

Thats y la.
