Hello all!

My name is Paul and I’m new to saltwater tanks. I’m currently running a 55 gallon with dry rock and a bit of live. Only at the 20 day mark of cycling. I’m using Red Sea mature to cycle, it’s slow but progressing. It’s taken me a year of researching how to build a tank to the point of cycling. Now I’m onto the phase of figuring out how to maintain and continue.
I’ve used this place mainly for all of the information and it’s helped me immensely. I guess it was about time to finally register and say hello.

Don’t mind my cable management. I’m still at the “I’m still trying to figure out placement age.”

Hi Paul and Welcome! Glad you joined. That is going to be gorgeous once it grows out!

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:

Well to R2R !

Enjoy the journey. There will be some "ugly" tank phases in the next year, but all will resolve with time.

The members here are a great resource.

Fellow novice,
Jim
