Hello R2R from DE USA

Hi everybody. My name is John and I'm starting up my first reef aquarium. I had a fish only salt water tank about 20 years ago but wanted to get back into it and finally do a reef aquarium. I notice that there are many abbreviations used on this site. Is there a thread that has all the abbreviations on it? I know a few like DT & QT but thats about it.
