Hi everyone. I'm a new person at this hobby, recently started in Feb I believe. I've gone through a few tanks and a few other things since then :( .
I do alot of reading, watching, and research. I've learned a crap ton in the few months I've been doing this. My partner used to have Manta/Sting rays in a tank that was as big as her living room, and also kept a huge aquarium of sea horses that were breeding for her. I'd always wanted to try keeping fish, but always thought it was prohibitally expensive...I wasn't wrong, but here I am.

I'm gonna post a video of my tank, since it's the best way I can show what I've been up to!
 
YAY! Another PNW Reefer:) Welcome to R2R! Love the video of the tank!

I ton of great looking pieces in there!!! Must spend a ton of time searching for all those. I’m also out of Oregon and also have a 300xl!
OH SNAP! Yea, some of them I bought when they were dieing. At the time, I had never tried coral, never knew how to keep them, or if my tank was even ready. They are alive and very much thriving. The two candy canes up front are a couple that were dieing at the time when I bought them.

Yo yo Hincapiej4, Welcome!
Nice looking tank! For only being at it for a few months, you reef like a pro. Start a build thread so newbs like myself can learn your secrets! There is much knowledge here that you can contribute to and glean from. Good to have ya around.
