Hey All!
New to reefing, but not new to the fishkeeping hobby. I decided to start shopping around for new tanks and setups, but I ran across this FB Marketplace deal where they wanted $250 for a complete Waterbox 20 AOI with stand. They had just posted it and I was the first one to respond. Come to find out the person was getting out of the hobby and had a Red Sea Reefer 170 complete with a Kessil A360XE light and a custom hood. I asked what they'd take for both and they responded $550. I accepted her offer without hesitation.
I'm excited, but am going to be methodical and do things right. Step by step. I have read that reef keeping is not a race, it's a journey.
I'm recently retired, so I figured I need some more stress in my life and decided reef keeping was a great idea! (Kidding... not kidding)
Thanks for all your future advice because I'm going to have a lot of questions.
