Hi Everyone,

I'm excited to be here. We had a saltwater tank I was younger, and I've always wanted to get back int it.

Still early in the journey and learning as I go. If you're close by I'd love to connect, maybe you have some gear you want get rid of some gear, or share some tips.

What size tank are you looking to come back too?


Grand Island is by buffalo?
You have 2 great coral shops by you.
ARC and TCK.

I'm thinking 40 - 60. Big enough but not too big.

We are between Buffalo and Niagara Falls. I haven't been to either but they are on my list to visit!

Welcome back, friend! Do you have a tank yet?

Any specific tank in mind? AIO or sump setup?
The IM 50EXT is a great system.

I made the mistake of starting small. I started with a IM25 last year, upgraded to a 100gallon within a month, and now working on a 350-400 gallon tank. 😂
