Welcome to the R2R family !!
 
Hello, I live in Washington state and I am brand new to saltwater coral tanks. In the past i have had numerous freshwater tanks, just never the time for a saltwater tank, well now I do. I am building a 45g reef tank, now I dont have all my components and I am on a budget, not skimping on materials just on a budget atm. For now I will have a HOB, with a aquatop xyclone skimmer. Also purchased, on great deal from ebay a 300w led viparspectra time control remote dimmable light for the tank. If I can fit a 15g sump tank in my cabinet I will switch to sump later on, or a 10g if it will work. Well i will post pics once I have it up and running. Over the past weeks I have been researching on YouTube and forums for ideas and try to avoid newbie mistakes. Hope to talk to some of you soon.

Welcome to R2R.

Mistakes are good, as long as they are small and manageable. With the research you have been doing, it sounds like you will be moving in a good direction.

Enjoy.
