Thanks everyone, you all make quite the welcoming committee!

Jeto2004, questions? Plenty still lol I will probably save a lot of those for my build thread. I will have some questions on equipment, building the sump and eventually stocking. Originally it was going to be a 29 gallon tank. Once my wife said she didn't want a bedroom tank anymore, I got the wild idea of selling my 150 gallon "poor man's saltwater tank"(mbuna) and doing a 75 reef instead. So now all of the equipment has pretty much changed.

Arthacker87, thanks for the offer! I actually just picked up a Curve 5 for $75 a couple weeks ago so I'm good on the skimmer. You aren't terribly far from me either. I'm in the Fairfield area.

Pelphrey, I was just there last month. Sadly I think it's gone downhill a lot, but it's still a nice aquarium :)

I look forward to contributing to this forum in the future.

A 75 gallon reef will be nice. A 150 would be twice as nice. A 225 would be...well you get the point :). Good luck.

We have a yearly pass, we’ve been up a few times!

For sure. I love the 6ft 150, but there is no way I could afford a reef tank that size let alone stock it. I also don't want to go overboard just yet being new. My plan is to get as much experience on the 75 and then when we move to a larger house (possibly within the next 2-3 years) and if money allows, upgrade to at least a 180. I really want an 8ft 300, but shoot lol One step at a time...
