Hello, I am new to saltwater and currently in the planning phase of my first saltwater tank. I have an empty 36 gallon I plan to use as my first reef tank. I will have many questions as I get started.

Hi Matt and 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 and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). I wish I had started while still in planning phase, which your above post indicates you may still be in early planning phases.

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

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