Glad be here! This is my second go at this game, I had a successful mixed reef about 15 years ago, and I recently caught the itch to reef keep again. I look forward to learning from your experiences, and advice. It's amazing and frankly, a bit daunting how much has changed in this hobby over the years. I'm currently running a nano redsea 34 gallon. I'd love to hear thoughts or recommendations on best practices, hacks, tips, anything that any of you have learned from or ran into along the way. I'm an open book excited to learn and have some conversations with you all! If there are any suggestions right away, please let me know. Thank you all in advance, happy beefing!

Alden.
