Hello all,

I have been deliberating for at least 12 months about coming on board with this hobby. Keeping a marine tank has always been on my bucket list having owned a few tropical tanks in the past. I now have a perfect location in my kitchen for a Red Sea Reefer tank, I know there is other brands available but RSR having done a lot of research seems to be the most popular choice for many reefers. As said I have done a lot of research over the last 12 months , watching YouTube videos and I think I have a very basic understanding of how to set up and maintain a reef tank. However I have a lot of anxiety as it is a very expensive hobby to make a complete balls of it , hence joining this forum group. I am going to spend a few weeks now reading up on different RSR builds / set ups to further develop my understanding of the hobby , prior to investing in my first salt water tank !

The tank I have on my mind is the 425XL .

As you can probably guess by my name, I am from N. Wales and there are 0 LFS in my area, I think the closest one to me is in Stockport , Manchester so if you can all help me as much as you can, I would be very appreciative!

Thank you
 
Welcome to R2R, Welsh Reefer. As a relatively new reefer, I did as u did and spent a lot of time researching before I bought. In the end, there comes a time that u just have to dive in, expecting there's going to be a learning curve no matter how much time you spend upfront. You should be fine and with the help of the wonderful people here you will make it work. GL
