New 210 reef build.

[Brian’s 210 Reef]

Hello everyone my name is Brian
Just a quick introduction on myself seeing I don’t have a tank quite yet and I will be starting my build thread here in the near future hopefully along with pictures and taking all of you on my journey.
I haven’t had a tank up since 2010 and I really been missing the hobby so I am going to dive right back in!
So seeing I’ve been away for a little while and I’ve been doing my homework not only on this site but I’ve also been on YouTube checking some things out and I’ve noticed that this hobby has gotten expensive lol
So with that being said I need to save up some more cash and get my build going and I will be looking forward to meeting all of you as we go.
Happy reefing
Brian

It's only expensive if you allow it, to an extent. Find a local club or post enough here to be allowed into the buy/sell area, then look for deals. There's always someone tearing down a system or switching equipment. Also a great way to get corals and fish that have been kept in a system long enough to know that they aren't going to have any issues from being just recently captured and transported - to me, that greatly lessens the chance of problems/diseases. Then you just have to make sure they have been at least somewhat well taken care of.
