Just joined R2R. I am planning my first salt water aquarium project, and a friend of mine highly recommended this site. Any tips/suggestions as I get started would be greatly appreciated!

Welcome to R2R ! You friend has good taste.

Best wishes on your start to the reefing journey !

As for suggestions, follow the link suggested earlier, and if you come across the thread on adding milk to a reef tank, hold off and read the entire thread. ;)

Have a great Holidays & 2022,
Jim

Welcome! 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 wish I had started build thread when I was still planning stage like you. Instead, 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)

Like @Kennya in post #4, this is a good reference book type online article I still review:
