My first Reef tank/ saltwater tank I have ever owned. its 70 gallons total (50g display) with a reef breeder for lighting. Everything is going very well and has been up and running for almost 2 months now. Its stocked with 2 clowns, yellow coris wrasse, pygmy angelfish, orange striped bristletooth tang (temporary edition while he grows out), starry blenny, cleaner shrimp and a coral banded shrimp. Most corals are new and have been in for at the most a month and the only thing I have noticed growth on was the leather coral. But i'm exited to say that this is much different from freshwater but still fun!

Saltwater is a real tank, whereas fresh water lacks a lot of salt for most of us, :)

Welcome to Reef2Reef and keep posting your build progress! It's a fantastic fist start! :)
