My name is Roy and my apologies for just getting around to formally introducing myself. Here goes. I’ve been in the aquarium hobby for well over 30 years. Majority of that time has been with freshwater aquariums. I currently have a 90 gal Discus tank and a 55 gal Angelfish tank. For over a year now, I merged into saltwater, well, I dove into it. I purchased a Waterbox 220.6 and have been constantly learning and maintaining a mixed reef tank. It’s definitely been an adventure. I joined the forum to learn from others and entertain myself with the post. Thanks in advance for welcoming me.

Welcome Roy! I go to school in Ohio and hope youve got a heater because the midwest is starting to get real cold

Welcome Roy, glad you are here but where are the mandatory tank pictures that are not mandatory?

Hi Roy and Welcome! Glad you joined. Nothing is mandatory here, but we are glad you took the time to come over and share!

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 might help you find people local to you in Kentucky:
