New Reefer

Roryreefer · Aug 21, 2022

Hello folks, just getting started in this crazy addictive hobby . I have had a 55 going now for about 5 months. Was never going to have saltwater given the initial start up. Well a friend was going down to one tank and gave me a lot of live rock and initial start up things. So far so good. I just happen to have a tank and other things from when I decide to leave the Discus hobby. This is a lot of fun and the learning is very enjoyable. Thx for the add!

Welcome! Glad you joined. Coming from the Discus side of freshwater, you are going to do VERY well in saltwater.

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:
