Hello! I'm just starting out setting up my first tank, been doing a ton of research, watching a lot of videos, reading articles etc.

I'd love to get more involved in the community! Sadly, since I live in Japan it hasn't been easy to find local events or people to chat with (my japanese is... basic conversational at best, and im gonna need to learn a LOT more reef keeping-related words)

Any more expats or other english speaking reef keepers living in Japan, by chance?
Hi there, welcome to R2R. I'm also an expat in Japan (Yokohama) and started reefing approximately 1 year ago. I have poor Japanese communication and I rarely find someone at the shops that speaks any English.
But luckily was able to find a shop with some very knowledgeable guys and I would usually bring someone to help me with the translation there.
I didn't find any nice events yet, besides in the LFS where someone from Red Sea would go to talk about their equipment.
One recommendation I would give is to always have some towels near your tank, because at any moment an earthquake can spill salt water on your floor.
Cheers!

Welcome to our little piece of the reef.
What part of Japan are you in? Do you have pix of your tank you can share?

Welcome!!!
