Welcome to R2R!

I am located only a couple miles from you. Contact me if I can be of any assistance. I'm a FO guy, but I have RO/DI, mixed and a good stock of meds if you're ever in need.
Thanks for the offer! I may take you up on it once my tank is ready.

Hey Y’all! I’m so excited to get started as a reefer. I’ve been watching tons of YouTube videos, talking to the workers at the local fish store, and researching the internet. I bought my first tank yesterday (37 gallon, cube). It’s set up with live sand, live rock and 2 Chromis. Now we wait until it’s ready to start adding more fish and corals.

Hey Everyone! So, I’m now on day # 10 of cycling my new tank. The rocks are getting a good bit of algae growth. The LFS person told me to scrub the rock with a brush to remove some of the algae. I need your expertise please. Yes or no? Thanks!
