Hello from San Antonio!

[Sean McClure]

Great looking stand!

Hope you don't like that carpet

Hahaha And what’s that supposed to mean?

Not a knock on your tank or setup.. just a new tank and all the chores. Servicing your skimmer, taking out rocks, acclimating fish and corals, water changes. If you can keep the saltwater off the floor, you're a much better reefer than I!

Welcome to R2R! Everybody here is extremely helpful. Probably about 48 billion years of experience here

Greetings from just up the road. You have a lot of good resources there in San Antonio, and also up in Austin. Make sure to hit the local frags swaps after you get up and running!

I gotcha.... Shoot man, I haven’t even really thought about that! I’ve got a pretty good carpet steam cleaner. Hopefully that’ll do the trick.

Welcome to R2R, I like your stand.

Greetings Everyone! I’ve been reading R2R threads for 6 months now, to help me on my 210 gal reef tank that I’m building, and just joined today! I’ve found so much helpful info on here and am already thankful for this community. This is my first saltwater aquarium, so I’m 100% positive I will need more help .
So far, my budget conscious set up is as follows: Used 210 gal Aqueon tank, self built stand, Shadow overflow, Elite Aquatics is building me a custom 70 gal triton method style sump & ATO, Simplicity 320 DC protein skimmer, and Orbit Marine IC pro marine bundle for automated lighting and pumps. I’ve got a loooong ways to go before it’s up and running, but I look forward to building the rest with this community’s help.

Wow that's gorgeous! Can't wait to see the build thread!

Thank you, Bleigh! Still trying to figure out this sight as there’s a lot going on. How do I start a build thread?

Thank you, Dusty! I’ve been to a few of the LFS’s out here, and the only one I’ve really liked so far is elegant reef. Do you have any other recommendations? I’m directly West of SeaWorld, outside the loop, and haven’t found anything close to me.

Elegant Reef is my favorite by far, next up is Saltyfish Aquarium.

Welcome!

Is Aquarium Designs still in business? I use to live in the area and spent plenty of time in their store
