Good evening, everyone, my name is Volloyd and I'm out in sunny southern Cali. I've been keeping freshwater fish for about 5 years now and am interested in getting into the saltwater side of the hobby. I have an empty 37 gallon tall with stand and an empty 10 gallon to make into a sump, also gonna drill the 37 for an overflow. I joined to learn all I can before diving in. I'm in no hurry and don't expect to be ready to actually start for at least a year so, until then I'll study and learn as much as I can from everyone. I'm very excited to start this new journey!
Welcome to R2R. I am in Orange County. If you are in that area, happy to share with you the best LFS in our area for saltwater. Send me a DM if interested.
