New to salt water

[carruthers79]

My name is Mike. Just started a water box 90.3. Totally new to the hobby haven’t had a tank for 20 years and I only ever had freshwater.
A pile of info to absorb. Not even sure if I have the right guts. Got the tank for Christmas so no time to research if I have the right equipment.
Seems like this is the right place to be.
I’ll probably just keep creeping

it’s a very rewarding and fun hobby but a pretty big money pit lol. I’d take a week or two and just watch a bunch of reefing videos to learn everything. This forum also has a bunch of really good stickied posts that can tell you everything you’d need to know.

Eventually you should make a build thread and list all your equipment, stocking plans, and any questions. People would respond direct telling you what’s good or not and give advice.

Anyways welcome to reef2reef!

Welcome to R2R! What equipment do you currently have? Most can be crossed over, so that are pretty much just saltwater would be protein skimmer and UV sterilizer.

Take a look at "BRS 52 Weeks of reefing". You'll do fine.

Welcome Mike!

You've made a good choice, participating here.

The guidance I've received here on R2R was the difference between having a tank that survives to a tank that thrives!

Questions? Ask away!
