Maybe it's because I work with marine systems at work, but I've never really enjoyed saltwater tanks. I dabbled with a 55g system in grad school when I worked part time at a pet store and could get everyting at cost. I was never really as happy with it as I've been with freshwater systems. Besides, 29g is about my max these days and I'm very very low tech (not a gadget gal). I'm having enough fun with my baby koi (grin)! But it's fun to hear how others get enticed into a new adventure!
