I’m just getting back into reefing. I joined reef 2 reef a couple of moths ago but really haven’t been active and have noticed I never posted a thread here lol.

I’m 43 years old and live in Texas. I’m one of those dang Yankees the south joke about haha. Either way I love it down here and this is where I remarried after getting out of the Navy. While in the navy I ran two tanks for about 7-8 years both predator tanks. 20 or so years later give a take a few I’m finally getting back into the hobby.
I have purchased a planet aquariums tank and still in the build process on my first ever reef tank. I spoke to few people on here already everyone I have had been so nice. Anywho!!!
Nice to meet y’all!

Welcome! Glad you joined.

Like you, 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)

I'm close to you in Grand Prairie near where new Ikea went up, and I'm from MD/VA/PA/DC area.

Thinks have changed a lot in 20 years, but this is a great reference book starter article if you haven't yet found it:

The Supreme Guide To Setting Up A Saltwater Reef Aquarium
