I’ve been admonished!

My bad, I joined, and I guess I never introduced myself. I am Pete and I live in Spring Valley Illinois. I have a 90 gallon tank with mixed corals and a few fish.
I haven’t made too many changes or additions lately mainly because we have been extremely busy with fighting my daughter in laws breast cancer, and this seems to take up most of my reef tank time. I made a short video showing the tank and fish this evening, if I’m lucky I’ll figure out how to post it here.
Looks like it’s too big, hmmmm…. maybe I’ll find a photo or two.
Looks like that worked.

Welcome! Glad you joined. Nothing here is mandatory, but GORGEOUS tank so I am glad you came over to introduce yourself.

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 in IL:

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

Welcome Pete, glad you are here! I will be praying for your daughter in law and your family. From a cancer survivor I know how difficult this is.
