Hello from Hong Kong

Hello everyone! I have been keeping fw fish for about 7 years now, and no longer am I able to resist the flourescent colours which come with a reef tank, haha.

Due to space and price limitations, so I have only been able to conjure a 16 gallon tank for my starter tank (I know this isn't ideal). I'm still missing live rock for my tank, as well as wondering if there are any good saltwater stores/retailers in HK (I only know of 3 stores in goldfish street, two of which are right next to each other, and the other one, iirc is called K corals). It would be great if I can be acquainted with the local reef club :)

I'm planning to add a banggai cardinalfish, clownfish, tailspot blenny, porcelain anemone crab, and a fire or skunk cleaner shrimp (or best case scenario, a machine gun coral shrimp, but I have never seen them for sale). Still not sure about corals though, probably soft corals and LPS once the water is stable.

Welcome! Glad you joined. Sounds like you are off to solid start, as planning for your future tank objectives is so important. Just take it slow and I'm sure it will all fall into place for you.

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:
 
Wonderful idea! I'll start doing that once all of my equipment arrives.
