Id definitely start by exploring the site. Then create your own thread with any questions you might have. 🤗
 
Also- buy as much tank as you can afford. All those gorgeous fish and coral suck you in and you want to be able to grow out nice colonies.

Also- highly recommend keeping a reef ready tank with a sump and starting with near 100% aged live rock if possible.
 
Slow and steady wins the race, and make sure stability is a top priority

Welcome!

Be patient. This is a turtle race. It will be over a year at least until your tank is stable.

Buy the best equipment you can afford.

Buy the biggest tank you can afford. 40+ gallons.

Get a reef ready tank that is drilled with an overflow and have a sump down below for your equipment.

Come here every day and learn.
