Changing username - Aquarium Advice

Is it possible for me to change my user name without losing my standing with the forum?

Yes...I can recall two members who have done it before. You can't do it yourself - you have to PM an admin, fishfreek or reefrunner69. They can change your username while still keeping your post count and anything else in your profile intact.

Historically we have changed names but we would like some kind of reason since changing of names can become confusing for other users.

My wife had found this forum while I was at work one day and set me up and I would just change it to the name I use on other forums so that I don't have to remember more than one username or password.

PM me your desired name.
