Hello! Very new to the hobby, it’s always been my husbands dream to have a reef aquarium. We are starting very small with a 65L FOWLR tank and then if all goes well hope to upgrade/ introduce corals in the future. At the minute we are a couple of months down the line and currently have 3 small hermits, a Nassarus snail, a trochus snail and 2 cerith snails (although one doesn’t look like it’s doing well) waiting another couple of weeks then hoping to introduce a pair of clownfish. Very nervous and apprehensive as I’ve read and seen how much work it can be but hopeful we can be successful!

Good luck and Welcome! You're going to need a bigger tank if you want to catch Ole Nessy though! LOL
