Hi Ming. Welcome

Welcome to r2r. I recommend Reefco in green brook. Bit of a ride but worth it

There is absolutely fish in Clifton which can b overpriced but always a good go to and POTO on state island. TSM in south Jersey for conditioned and fully QT fish well worth it. Staff are great and they just opened back up to public. Planning a trip.

Welcome! Glad you joined. Suggest you take it slow... maybe get just one of each type you like, make sure it thrives before adding more. Fish are easy, corals take more testing, dosing and consistency. I wasn't ready to work that hard, but my BF has been so we're making it work (finally - lots of sad coral deaths along the way because we didn't listen when people said early: go slow... ) You may already have that patience and ability, and having good BBA - Bounce Back Ability - is great for this hobby and life!

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

Good luck on your journey dude. I buy all my corals from these people. You can find them on Facebook also.

For more moderately priced stuff I use these people

Can’t help you with any local fish stores. But I’ve had good luck with these folks.
