Hey, everyone!

My name is Nick and I’m new to reef2reef. I’ve had a 60g cube for around 10 years that I’ve recently upgraded to a 100g long.

It’s been great reading through the forums to help make the transition much easier. I look forward to continuing to learn more as I expand my tank.

Original 60g cube (overgrown with green and pink BTAs, lol):

Hi Nick and Welcome!

Glad you joined. Thanks for photos - GORGEOUS tank - you must be very proud. Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. Like you, 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). If you just put the above pictures in a new thread over in Forum > Members Aquariums > ta dah that part is done. Then just go into your account to link. Looking good in that tanks!!

The tang in the 3rd pic looks like he's saying "let me out!"

Welcome. Quite a few Canadians on here, myself included (Oshawa).
That yellow tang is quite the character! Always makes me laugh. It’s great seeing other Canadian reefers (especially from the GTHA).

I’ll definitely add a new topic to the build thread. I’ve been taking pics along the way with the new build. Thanks for the suggestion!

Welcome fellow Torontonian! Glad you're part of the community. That is a mighty beautiful upgrade and from looking at your fabulous 60 you probably didn't have to learn much. :-D Keep posting updates of your new tank.
