New to Reefs and Marine Aquariums

[jgalina]

Hello!
I’m new to reef and marine aquariums, after a lifetime of owning freshwater aquariums of all sorts I decided to learn and make the switch.
Starting with a Fluval Evo 13.5, adding all the suggested upgrades, an AI Prime 16 HD, the Fluval protein skimmer, VCA flow randomizer, Aqamai nano powerhead, InTank chamber 2 filter basket and ordering a Kraken Reef lid.
Looking forward to learn and share experiences as I discover more things about this wonderful hobby.

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 under Forum > Member Aquariums 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 in Mexico:
