Hi everyone!
I have enjoyed fish and the outdoors for most of my life, and have always thought it would be fun to have a saltwater aquarium, but have been put off by the complexity and difficulty. I finally decided to give it a try, regardless, and see how things go.
I ordered an IM Fusion Pro 2 10-gallon tank with matching white stand, which should arrive next week.
Over the past several weeks I’ve been trying to educate myself by reading books, browsing forums, watching YouTube videos, and basically researching all things reef related in order to try and educate myself for the upcoming experiment.
Finding a water supply was the first issue. I purchased the AquaticLife Buddy Plus DI system from Amazon for $60. I set it up today in my guest shower and it seems to work great. My local tap water tested 151 ppm, the Ozarka Springs water I normally drink tested 40 ppm, and the AquaticLife RO water tested 0 ppm.
If nothing else works I‘ve already had a mini success!
More to come...
