18 mo into the hobby.

Looking learn from and meet other reefers. Attended Reef a Poluza in Anaheim last weekend. Set up a quarantine tank. Hope I am doing everything right.
Welcome to Reef2Reef! Start a build thread. You'll hopefully get some people following along that can give advice and encouragement along the way. Also, post questions in the forums if you're unsure of things. Tons of knowledgeable people stalk these hallways willing to help out with their experiences!
 
Welcome and if you are srarting with a QT system you are off to a great start

Welcome! Glad you joined. I'm doing my first Reef A Palooza this coming October when they hold their first Texas event in Frisco (DFW area, northern Dallas part of metroplex)

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:

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:
