Hi!

Been keeping aquariums in general for about 35 years. I still love my FOWLR, South American cichlids and freshwater plants, but about 12 years ago I got into reefing and fell in love. I'm a gadget/automation junkie with a tendency toward big systems and unnecessary complexity in my tanks. I manage a destination LFS in upstate New York, and am excited to finally join the reef2reef community after years of snooping.
Welcome to the party!!! It’s always fun to watch from a distance but it’s even better when you come to the dance floor! Glad to have you and the experience you bring!

Welcome! Glad you joined.

Have you considered starting your build thread? Bet it would knock our socks off given your experience(s)!! I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). They'll only give you one badge if you decide to do a thread for each of your tanks - your post may imply you've got several tanks.

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:
