Any thoughts on what you'll be putting in it?
It will be a reef tank. I’m going to do corals for the first time. I’ll have a couple of clownfish, a yellow watchman goby and a pistol shrimp and a few other fish and the requisite CUC.

Awesome. Since it's a relatively smaller tank, I'd really take my time deciding what to put in it since you're limited in space and bioload. If it was me, I'd probably spend hundreds of hours researching and really trying to think it through, but that's just me. I spend hundreds of hours researching for my 300 gallon too haha :)
 
Hello everyone. I’m getting back into saltwater aquariums after a 12-year absence. I have a 29 gal tank that I’m setting up and cycling.

Welcome! Glad you joined.

Since you are my 'northern neighbor' LOL, you might be interested in upcoming event. Reef A Palooza is coming to Texas for the first time this Oct 6-7, if you want to drive south for it.

Have you considered starting your build thread? 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)

This might help you find people local to you:

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