First time here,

Finally attempting to get into the reefing hobby. I've had my saltwater tank for a few years, but really only kept fish and an anemone. I have a 15-gallon fluval flex that's planted freshwater, and a 55-gallon saltwater tank. I attached a picture. Please ignore the rigged-up lighting fixtures, they were made to accommodate my apartment complex and my roommate's cat. Most of the coral in the tank is fairly new, except for the anemones that have split 5 times this past year. I did move the firework clove back to the frag rack and have replaced it with a new frogspawn can update the pic later.

Happy to be here and share my experiences /progress and learn with you all.
Ppen to all advice and pictures of other reef tanks!

Welcome!! From Muskegon myself!

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 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). You already seem to be doing well!

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