Hey from Arizona. I’m new to aquariums and saltwater tanks. I’m trying to learn as much as possible before I buy stuff I don’t need. Thanks for allowing me to join the group.
That’s a great idea to start the thread of my own tank but I’m not sure how or where to create the thread. I’ll try to figure it out though.Welcome! Glad you joined. You have a very smart plan!!
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). I wish I had started thread while still in planning stages, and that sounds like where you may still be right now.
This might help you find people local to you in Arizona:

I recently decided on a Red Sea 425 XL. I went with a Sicce Syncra 9.0, a Red Sea 600 skimmer with 2 Reefwave 25’s. For my lights I have 2 Red Sea ReefLED 90. I went with 80 lbs of Oceans Direct Caribbean Live Sand and some Artesian calcium carbonate rock to start with.
