Hi all !! New Jersey here

[Sunbug]

I'm getting an established 90g salt water tank, with sump. At the moment it has aptasia, so while breaking it down I'm cleaning live rock and everything. I am trying to research everything and getting a little overwhelmed.

Welcome to R2R. It's easy to get overwhelmed, but patience is key. Ask plenty of questions as there are many willing and able folks here to help you along.

Welcome Sunbug! Where are you located....I'm in Sayreville. Great time to start a Member's Tank thread and document your build. Again, welcome to R2R.

I'm not familiar with stores in the immediate area, but you might wish to check out Aquarium Care Center in Ocean, and pretty much across the street, Tropiquarium, both on Route 35. I'm guessing they are about 30 minutes north of you. At least you get two stores for one drive. :D

Welcome

Aptesia is bad personally i would acid and bleach the rock
That sort of defeats the purpose of buying a established reef

Thank you so much, I did get to check them out, awesome! About 45 to hour away. But really neat places.

Not sure where in Toms River you are but there is also Ultimate Corals in Jackson that may be close. Mark has tons of great corals. @hcker99
