Hello R2R!

cwerner · Sep 8, 2020

I'm new to the salt hobby, but not new to aquariums. I've had a few freshwater tank but when researching new aquarium ideas I came across a reef tank build and was blown away.

I work in IT and am a bit of a gear head so the complexity of the water chemistry appeals to me.

I'm currently building a 75 gallon Marineland tank that I drilled and installed a sump on. Right now I'll probably add water in the next couple days. Hoping to see what everyone else is doing as well as discuss reefing with like minded folks.

Welcome to Reef2Reef! I'm liking the lagoon style tank!!! Looking forward to seeing that tank stocked with corals, what are you planning to put in there?

Welcome to the saltwater hobby!!

Love the tank and the build.. little word of advice possibly consider a QT tank for incoming livestock to ensure your gorgeous new system is disease free! Check out my video on setting up a QT

Check out my other videos could have some helpful stuff! Would love for ya to subscribe!

Welcome cwerner.
I run the same tank
Try to fit a skimmer and refugium into your sump, best way to export imo.
Lef us know what you need

Welcome to R2R! I’m a software dev. myself (and new to saltwater as well). The added complexities of saltwater over fresh is a quite the thrill!
Tank setup looks great
