Welcome everyone to my first build thread on R2R. Please be patient with me as I take a very long time for everything in this hobby including this build thread. However, I will try my best to provide in detail to help other reefers out there. I have read so many build threads that have tons of insightful information and I hope my build thread can help others as well. -Anthony
