Hey Guys!

I just got into saltwater a couple of months ago. I have previous freshwater experience, but other than that I'm pretty green!

I got a HelloReef starter kit and I've been having a blast so far researching and getting my aquarium all set up. So far I have 2 clowns, a yasha goby, a candy cane pistol shrimp, and a CUC.

Once my tank hits 6 months old in awhile here I'm going to get some beginner corals. I've been doing lots of research beforehand to make sure I have all my ducks in a row and my parameters dialed in. I may be asking some questions about potential beginner coral stocking lists soon. So, any beginner coral advice would be greatly appreciated!

This community seems very friendly and helpful! Hope you all are doing well!
