Hey everyone my name is Brian from long island NY. I am currently getting ready to start my build on a 50 gal SCA cube aquarium! I was in the hobby about 4 years ago. Lots had changed since then I moved out of my parents house got engaged and bought my own place. Now that all the wedding expenses are paid I talked the future wife into letting me get a reef tank ! So pumped I will be making a build thread in the next few months as my tank should be here in a few weeks ( just ordered friday) I look forward to sharing with all of you!
 
Welcome! Did you order from SCA directly? I bought my SCA 50g cube off amazon and was shocked to have it arrive a couple days later via freight!
Yes I ordered from sca directly. Amazon is great but my tank will be drilled for a 16" reef shadow overflow !

Not yet. I've been growing the long island reef club forum on here. Maybe down the line I will deff get involved !
 
Welcome back to the hobby.

Welcome to R2R, just remember 1 thing that will help you succeed. Get your future bride involved in the hobby. It will make all of the difference.

Yes! The original plan was to fill with water after the wedding but I brought her to the fish store the other day and now she wants fish! I even am teaching her how to use the apex
 
Very very smart, my wife and I have been married 22yrs. On our 22nd anniversary, she told me she wanted to shop for corals on that day. So we did, and it was awesome.
