Welcome!! I'm just to the east of Asheville, so not far from you! I just moved to the area about a year ago from FL and am getting back into the hobby myself after a break.

There's a couple groups on FB that I found and I'd recommend checking out - Carolina Reefing Community, and Mountain Area Reef Club.
Hello there neighbor! I grew up in Asheville or rather Woodfin right next to Asheville. Thank you for the suggestions! I will check them out for sure!

I am in a little town called Sylva that most people don't have any idea where it is. Lol it's about an hour from Asheville and 10 minutes to the casino in Cherokee.
WELCOME to the forum from a neighbor over here in Haywood County. I am in you neck of the woods several times a month for work.

I've been in "water boxes" for over 50 years but I've been out of "salty water boxes" for about 10years but I'm getting back into it in the next few weeks.

Have you decided on what tank and equipment you're going with? I'll suggest, don't skimp on the front end or you could end up buying things TWICE.

Again WELCOME to the group. When you join the Mountain Area Reef Club you'll see several other local Reefers in the area. Hopefully, (fingers crossed) we can get enough interest to start up having Frag Swaps/Meets again like we did several years ago.

I work in Haywood County! I have already joined the Mountain Area Reef Club on Facebook. I have bought and setup a tank second hand that came with most of the equipment as well as live rock and sand. I added my first inhabitants this past weekend if you would like to take a look at my build thread.

That's too cool!! I work "from" Clyde but my office is all over WNC and ETN depending on the day.

Hi everyone. :) long time freshie getting ready to try my hand at being a salty. Currently own 11 freshwater planted tanks ranging from 125 gallons to 5 gallons but am going to be selling at least one of them to make room for my first saltwater. In the meantime doing lots and lots of research so I get it right. Looking forward to getting to know everyone I can and learning as much as I can.
Welcome to R2R, from a fellow Freshwater Tanks person too..
