Newbie from Tampa Bay

Hello,

My name is Justin born and raised in the Tampa Bay, FL. I'm new to the reefing and saltwater world. As a kid I always wanted a saltwater tank but my parents would never let me have one. Fast forward 25 years and due to COVID I've been working from home since March 2020 and have just been reading and reading and reading (I also watched some YouTube videos as well) and I've finally pulled the trigger. My first aquarium is a WaterBox 20g AIO. I've just finished the aquascape and I have almost all of my supplies to get this tank running. Just need to finish building my stand.

I really appreciate all of the knowledge here on this site and the amazing builds many of you have done! I'm sure I will have many questions once I really get going.

Welcome to the R2R family! Make sure to start a build thread. It’s a great way to journal the progress of your tank and makes it’s easier for people to follow your build! Don’t forget to take lots of pics!

So you want a MY TANK THREAD badge???

Well, here's the way to get one! STEP 1: Start a tank thread in one of our member tank forums (CLICK HERE). *Btw, it doesn't have to be a new tank. It doesn't matter if your tank has been up for 40+ years, we would still love for you to start a tank thread where we can follow all the updates...
