Hello and Welcome!

My advice is to take it very slow, when you think you are going slow enough slow down :) Also, read on this forum about every aspect of your tank that you want to upgrade/change. There is an incredible amount of knowledge at your fingertips! Good Luck with everything!

Run away now! It's basically a glass box you simply pour money into!! :)
Seriously though, don't over react to parameters, take your TIME, relax on everything!! Just have fun.

I agree with all of the above. Most important are taking your time and ENJOYING it .. Try not to let it stress you out. I've been there and it took away from how much I loved it. Welcome to R2R! Make sure when you get started to start a tank build thread so we can follow along and help in any way we can :)
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
