Hello, I’m Cathy and new to this group.
I have a 13.5 EVO that I’ve been running for a year now, I’m new to Saltwater Tanks and being new to them yea I’ve had my major crashes and disasters do to my own not doing the most research before getting involved with this hobby, But I never gave up. I’ve had two Corals that have survived my faults and just now decided it was time to add more and I’ve improved my knowledge. So with that said wish me luck and thank you for letting me join.

Welcome to Reef2Reef!!

Good job sticking with it through the crashes! There is always more to learn in this hobby but that's what makes it great!

Hi Kathy . Welcome to r2r
Most of us have been in that exact same place . Moving forward and learning from the mistakes we made is the key.

feel free to ask any questions and also
Feel free to add a picture of your setup.

Now would be a great time to start a build thread to document and track your journey

Hi Cathy. I'm Lisa. Welcome! Glad you joined. Sorry for your past losses, but sounds like you have BBA - Bounce Back Ability which is great both for this hobby and great life skill.

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 might help you find people local to you:

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