Same here! Searching for an answer, and came across R2R! I liked it, kept going back with other questions, and eventually just joined because I like the people so much. And the knowledge is endless.

I Googled "most popular reef tank forum" or something along those lines and R2R was the first result.

Google sent me here. Most of the questions I had googled showed up in R2R

It’s been a while since we asked!

How did you find the community here at Reef2Reef?

Back in the late spring 2006 I noticed on Reef Central the words "Club Zoa" appearing under user names of members there.
It was mostly in the zoanthid forum.
I saw no other reference to Club Zoa.
I sent a private message to one of those members ( maybe you @revhtree ? ) and asked what it meant.
I was directed to a brand new forum called Club Zoa, which is here.

FWIW, several of the members that had Club Zoa under their users names got changed to "Moved On".

Was on RC allot back then and things became kind of uncomfortable over there, not for me necessary, but just not a enjoyable site anymore. I cant remember who but there were already guys on RC from here that directed me to this site. Where you could post a question or a opinion on something and not get attacked by the mods and threated by to be banished LOL

Google.

And quite thankful I did find it, but it was not hard, y'all are at the top of most reef search results that I do.

Oh, c'mon now, @revhtree! You know, well-enough, that  we don't find R2R;  R2R finds us. It's the collective psychic draw of the entire community, pulling as one.



Just kidding. It was Google

Yup, back in 2019 or so. The problem, good sir, was that my expiration date was 31MAR2009.

I found Reef2Reef when I was looking for some help with my small reef tank.
I didn’t expect the community to be this friendly and welcoming.
So I stayed, and now I read something here almost every day.

Honestly… I can’t remember anymore.
Maybe Google, maybe YouTube — but I’m just glad I found R2R.
