Hey all! I’ve been in the freshwater hobby since I was a kid and began reefing about a year ago. My brother inspired me to get into hobby. I started with a pico tank knowing the challenges and with his help it’s been successful. I did have some troubles along the way but nothing that couldn’t be solved having my brothers advice. I’m currently running a Lifegard 4.14 and plan on upgrading later this year. I kind of fell right in and I love reefing.

Welcome! Glad you joined. Sounds like you're coming along well. Fun to team up with someone in this hobby! Glad your brother helps out as needed. You'll find this site to be very helpful, too

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:

Yes I have been wanting to start one but I was confused on how and where to start. That helps a lot thank you! :) I should be posting it up soon then.
