hello! First time ever owning any saltwater aquariums, but decided to jump into reefing instead of just keeping the fish! Have always kept aquariums, reptiles and bugs, but never took the dive into saltwater. Just moved across the US to a new state so decided to take the challenge!

Welcome! Glad you joined.

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 in Alabama:

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