Instead of constantly lurking it’s time for me to finally say hello to everyone! You can call me Sea. :)

I’m so excited to hopefully become an active member of this community. My hubs and I just started our first saltwater tank (will link to our build thread when I get it going!) and we’re pretty much diving headfirst into the reefer hobby. I’ve had multiple freshwater tanks growing up and all through college, but never had the capital to start a saltwater. But now we’re here! And incredibly excited!

Any tips, things you’d wish you knew the first time you dove in, tricks, or bewares will be greatly appreciated! Can’t wait to get involved!

patience and always remember, the tank will test you in many ways, do your research and you will pass the test

My tips would be. Find a successful reefer who keeps sps and follow their advice. You will find so much conflicting info because everyone has different opinions on what works. Second biggest advice is dip every coral you buy.
I used to think dipping corals would harm them and that’s why I couldn’t keep corals. The truth was I had pests from not dipping corals that were killing them!
