Hello from the PNW

Welcome to R2R and the salty world. Good that you are taking things slowly. Lots of knowledgeable and helpful people here who will support and advise you when needed.
 
Hi! I’m new to this forum and this hobby. I’m starting my first reef aquarium (and first aquarium ever) in the coming weeks. I’ve already read a lot of content on here during my research phase, but I decided to go ahead and join!

I’m located in the PNW.

Welcome! Glad you joined.

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). I wish I had started when I was in the planning phase, which sounds like you are still.

This might help you find people local to you:

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:
