Hello everyone, my name is Mark and I'm from Massachusetts. I have dabbled with freshwater tanks off and on for many years and have always admired and wanted a saltwater tank. 2 years ago my oldest son acquired a 75 gallon tank as a surprise for me. I have been slowly putting it together as I am able to afford to progress further. I have been and continue to watch videos from BRS and WWC to educate myself with the hobby to hopefully avoid beginner mistakes and hopefully succeed and enjoy the hobby. Here are a few pictures of my slow progress and will be sharing more as I travel through my adventure. Please let me know what you think. Have a safe and blessed new year.

Welcome!
 
Welcome to R2R! Very nice tank and it looks like you are taking your time and doing it right. Patience is a key ingredient of most successful tanks. Good start.
