Hey Everyone!
I have been running a 29g Cichlid tank for 4 years and have always wanted to try saltwater.
I really needed a winter project and decided to take the dive in early November.
I love the detail and I’m an equipment junkie in all my previous hobbies(kitesurfing and triathlon).
looking for to getting enough knowledge that I will not be stressed doing this. Definitely getting there.
thanks for the future help I know I can get here!

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). It's never too early to start your thread!

This might help you find people local to you in Franklin:

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

Welcome!!
Cichlids are cool but have you met their weird saltwater cousin? Great thing about this hobby is there are so many fish, corals, inverts, and even weird plants!
