Hi, I’ve been reading posts and learning from others on this site for a few months. Figured I would say Hi. I’m kinda nervous posting but here goes… I enjoy all the advice and direction I get from here and have a few questions myself. However, I’m still learning the site. Looking forward to good banter and making new friends. Thanks for reading and any replies.

Welcome! Glad you joined. I'm Lisa. Here is a big "HOWDY" from your DFW neighbor!

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.

This might help you find people local to you but I just heard there is also a San Antonio FaceBook group that is sort of active (sorry, don't know its name yet):

Local Reef Club Discussion

Looking for some locals to share frags and info with? This is the place! Find a local club that meets in your area! If you want to add your club just contact us.
