Hello all! I’m Brandon and I’m new to the hobby. I’ve had freshwater aquariums for over a decade and was finally convinced by another hobbyist to take the plunge into saltwater! I could not be happier that I did! I started my first reef tank back in early October of 2022 and it’s been a very slippery slope since. I currently have the Fluval Evo 13.5 and it has been a great starter tank and a wonderful learning experience. The only problem is that I’m quickly running out of room! I’ve even started fragging my own corals! I have mostly softies and a few LPS. Time for an upgrade! . I’m looking forward to learning a lot here and expanding my hobby! Cheers!

welcome.
I am just North of you in SE MI.
I have the same tank, let me know if you want to compare notes. I have pretty much replaced everything from the stock equipment in this tank.
I’d be interested in a frag of that Gorgonian if you ever need to trim it.
