Welcome to R2R! People here are friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I hope you start a build thread. I look forward to seeing your build progress. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and research as much as you can. Patience is key. Nothing good happens fast in a reef tank. I hope you’ll start a build thread. I would love to see your reef progress.
