I’ve found peace.

After years of lurking here and on multiple subreddits, watching and learning, I’ve finally pulled the trigger and gotten my first tank up and running. I don’t think I could be happier. I have a Red Sea Max Nano, I’ve recently completed the cycle and begun stocking. I have a black ice clown and a mocha clown, a cleaner shrimp, and a handful of hermit crabs. I have legit never been more content and at peace than when I’m watching this tank. Thank you all for the education you’ve provided me over the years.

Its incredibly rewarding when I see new reefers successfully hit the ground running due to the research they have done here on R2R.

Congrats on the new tank and welcome to the conversation!

Welcome to R2R! Very nice tank! I keep coming and going in the hobby and the one thing that always brings me back is the feeling of peace I get while watching a tank.
