Hi everyone!

Glad to be here. After nearly a half a lifetime of wanting to keep marine fish my family is taking the plunge!

We are in the early stages of our build, after about two months of planning. Looking forward to the learning experience.

R2R has been great so far as a resource, we also have watched a ton of BRSTV including the entire 52 weeks of reefing. Will be interesting to see how that helps us succeed and fail along the way. We are now also watching other channels like reef builders and several others to keep moving forward with our plan and implementation.

Going to put up my build in the build thread if anyone wants to follow along! It is 240 gallons of display with a 75 gallon sump. It is super ambitious for a new reefer, but I am sure we will be able to go slowly and grow into it.

Nice to meet everyone.

Eric

Eric, welcome to Reef2Reef. I lived in Brown Deer for a couple years. I'd suggest starting a build thread to follow the progress of your tank.
