Hello R2r - Beens_N_Weever here

[beens_N_Weever]

I am Colt and I am new to the aquarium hobby. I've always wanted an aquarium and finally made the leap in the waters.

This is my first tank and it's a 20 gallon tank. I've got two clownfish (Dreamy & Cream C), and a hectors Gobby (Sunny). They've been in my tank for about a week and I look forward to watching them grow. I plan to add some CUC and a Royal Gramma Basslet over the next few months. In about 6 months I'd like to start adding coral to really get that slice of the ocean in my home.

I have plans to eventually move up to a bigger tank, I'd love to get a tank closer to 100gal.

Happy Reefing and I look forward to meeting y'all.

Hi Colt and Welcome! Glad you joined.

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).

Its amazing to me how few people seem familiar with Hector's Goby - LOVE THEM!!! I have one in my 60 FOWLR (and I have foam making sure its little body can not slip into my overflow). Glad to find another Hector's Goby lover!

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:

The Supreme Guide To Setting Up A Saltwater Reef Aquarium

This article was sponsored by @MarineDepot at www.marinedepot.com. Introduction The marine environment is one of the most complex systems on the planet. The aquarium you are about to set up is only a tiny sliver of the vast ocean, but it is no...

@beens_N_Weever I have dyslexia and I am wondering if you meant Beans & Wieners?

I remember my first tank, a fish bowl moved up to a 5 gallon I got trading Green Stamps that my mom collected.
