Hello! My name is Andres and I am brand new to the hobby when an opportunity arose from a colleague to inherit their saltwater tank as they had to move. Being experienced with freshwater tanks, having always wanted to have one of these, having watched all the BRS videos I could watch for years and being prepared to spend more than I care to share, I made the jump and am praying it will pay off in happiness lol

Working on a build thread please give me any tips you recommend :) In a gist: 55 gal, 2 clowns, mixed reef goal, Reasonable budget

My thread (I think?): https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/55-gallon-mixed-reef-my-first-ever-saltwater-aquarium.1108910/

Welcome to the community Andres! You will definitely find all the help, advice, tricks, and sales here on the forums! Since you're wanting to do a mixed reef, I highly suggest checking out the sponsored posts area in the marketplace. A lot of the big vendors will do a sale (or auction) at least one a month it seems, and they give you the opportunity to win gift cards (usually $25 or $30 depending on the vendor) and that's really helpful when you're just starting out!! I will be following along with your build thread. Can't wait to see what you do! :D
