Hello all, my name is Mark. My wife and I are closing on our first home in less than two weeks!
We have always daydreamed of having a nice pool or hot tub, and soon we will have both! The whole process has happened quickly... a month ago we were still looking for a house, and honestly, having a pool didnt seem like a possibility.
So here we are! While i admittedly know nothing about keeping a pool, I do keep a 6' reef tank with fish, coral, and anemones. There are many similarities in maintaining the two, and I'm glad that I have found new home, as TFP seems to align with my method of keeping a reef: keep it simple and stable, quality test kits are worth the cost, and be cautious of what the pool store or LFS ( local fish store) tell you.
So i have been reading up at Pool School and last week i recieved my TF100xl and mag stirrer. We have a lot to do, but as soon as we can get our junk moved and 250 gallons of reef put back together, I will start a new thread!
