Welcome to R2R!
 
Hi there! I'm Samantha. I live in Missouri and have done freshwater aquariums on and off for about 10 years. Looking into starting my first saltwater aquarium soon once I move into our first home later this year. Until then I'm looking for lots of advice and recommendations as saltwater is completely foreign to me.

I look forward to giving it a try and growing to love it as much as my cichlid tank!

Hi Samantha and Welcome! I'm Lisa. Glad you joined.

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 under Forum > Member Aquariums and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). It's never to early to start writing down your plans and dreams!

This might help you find people local to you in Missouri:

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