Hello Reefers! This will be my second attempt, onlty this time I wont be wet behind the ears on this one for a bit of time. I am reading and researching first and then I will be building my tank from the ground up. It will start as a 40b with sump and eventually refugium. Cycling, testing and stability will all be my first hands on lessons and once I have those down then fish and softies will begin their acclimation into the tank. BTW I did none of this the first time, I just jumped in and gave it a whirl!!

Looking forward to being a part of this community. Pleasure to meet you all!
