Hello R2R,

While I have kept fish tanks from time to time throughout my life, I have never considered myself a hobbyist and I have never kept a saltwater tank before...so I consider myself fairly new. My Mom recently called me up and told me that she was getting rid of her 75 gallon saltwater tank and asked me if I would like to have it. So...I now have the biggest tank I've ever kept with a couple of clown fish and what I think is a very fiesty sixline wrasse (although I'm still not certain on that front). It has a sizable amount of rock that is pretty overgrown with string algae. What initially started as a an attempt to figure out how to reduce/remove algae has essentially turned into a research project on everything I can get my hands on relative to building a reef. My professional background is in science, so I have really found this enjoyable.
I have to put a shout out to Bulk Reef Supply and their #BRS160 - 52 weeks of reefing project. It has been tremendously helpful and pointed me in the right direction to start with. That said, I still have many questions and am hoping to get help from this community's experiences.

Cheers

Welcome! Not sure where you are at in Ohio, but there a quite a few great shops in the greater Cleveland area! Hope you enjoy your time on R2R. I've found it to be one of the most helpful resources out there for all levels of reef keeping.
