Hi everyone, I am a new reefer from Michigan hoping to get started in this exciting hobby. Just ordered my first fish tank, a Red Sea XL 300 and looking to build a mixed reef. Learned a lot going though the threads here and hoping to learn a lot from from this amazing community.
Welcome to Reef2Reef from a fellow Michigander! Make sure you post in the Michigan Reefers thread and join the Midwest Reefer's Club! Also start a build thread so we can all follow along!

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)

This might help you find people local to you:

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