I’ve been keeping fish since I was 15 but this will be my first attempt at a reef tank. Wish me luck. I will post parameters shortly. The goal is to have a mixed reef.

Looks like a good setup. Do you have access to a par meter for your lights? I’d want to make sure they’ll be good for what you want to put in the tank.
