New to reefing

Come on in the water is fine……..

I am speaking from experience here. I fought a tank for 2 years and got nothing but frustration and a lower bank account. I am in the process of re-starting my tank and just joined R2R a few days ago and already have gotten great advice and encouragement.

I started a thread in the Member Tank forum (90 Gallon Phoenix). Posts are a little long but it is exactly step by step of what, why, and how I am getting this tank up and running.

If you want to read a real horror story I posted in the meet and greet (reef tank or divorce) of the results of not being patient, poor advice (not R2R advise), and simply not knowing what I was doing.

Hope it helps and welcome to the club.
This is a great place to learn and ask questions.
