I’m Eric new to Reef2Reef and just getting into the saltwater/reef hobby. I don’t have a big tank yet, but I’m really interested in learning the basics, seeing people’s builds, and understanding what equipment, corals, and fish work best for beginners.
Looking forward to learning from all of you and eventually starting my own setup!

Hey Eric- great to have you.

First thing you need to know is that this isn't a hobby. It becomes and addiction to which there is no getting out until you are broke and/or if forced to do so, and you will go through withdrawals permanently until you decide to set up a new reef tank.
