Howdy,

I've been into freshwater for more than a decade and have recently decided to venture into salt. My father-in-law offered up a 75 gallon tank that's been sitting in his garage. I'm not sure what it comes with, but I'm learning about the hardware requirements so I'll have an idea of what to purchase. YouTube has been helpful, but this forum looks to be far more detailed.

Welcome, welcome, welcome!! You're in good company!! Actually quite a few new members have just signed up with 75 gallons, so you should be able to find good recommendations for your size tank, no matter which way you're going!! Feel free to reach out or ask your questions!!
 
Welcome to R2R! You hit it spot on, YouTube is great to get the basics and check out some hands-on demos, but for detailed or specific questions/topics, R2R is your best bet. People here are SUPER helpful.
 
Hello!!! Welcome to R2R!!! Idk if any of your freshwater tanks were planted but, if they were, you can try something similar with macro algaes in your new saltwater tank. If you have any questions I'd be happy to help! :D
