Hey y’all, i haven’t done an introduction post yet so here. My name is Tyler and I’m 13 years old. I was born and raised in florida and have always loved fish and coral. I had many fresh water tanks prior but When I turned 11, i decided to get a saltwater tank. I got a few corals and stuff and It failed. Then when i turned 12 I got a lagoon 25g. It was very successful and all the coral had great growth and it was beautiful. Unfortunately I had a flatworm issue about a year later and tried to get rid of them. I had a full tank crash overnight and now i’m rebuilding! Any help or advice is much appreciated.

Welcome! Glad you joined. Sorry for your losses but sounds like you have BBA - Bounce Back Ability which is great both for this hobby and for life.

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