New to the hobby

Welcome r2r.png
 
Hi all!

I'm a new guy in San Diego looking to take up the hobby. I have done fresh water in the past, but now that I am retiring from the Navy, I have the time to set up a tank I've always wanted. Plan to hear a lot of questions from me! :)

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)

This might help you find people local to you:

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