Hello R2R,
While I have kept fish tanks from time to time throughout my life, I have never considered myself a hobbyist and I have never kept a saltwater tank before...so I consider myself fairly new. My Mom recently called me up and told me that she was getting rid of her 75 gallon saltwater tank and asked me if I would like to have it. So...I now have the biggest tank I've ever kept with a couple of clown fish and what I think is a very fiesty sixline wrasse (although I'm still not certain on that front). It has a sizable amount of rock that is pretty overgrown with string algae. What initially started as a an attempt to figure out how to reduce/remove algae has essentially turned into a research project on everything I can get my hands on relative to building a reef. My professional background is in science, so I have really found this enjoyable.
I have to put a shout out to Bulk Reef Supply and their #BRS160 - 52 weeks of reefing project. It has been tremendously helpful and pointed me in the right direction to start with. That said, I still have many questions and am hoping to get help from this community's experiences.
Cheers
