I am a newer saltwater tank Enthusiast. I can’t seem to get a full grasp on what my tank is doing. If I get one issue right then something else comes up just looking for some help.

Hi and welcome! I'm a newer saltwater tank owner also. Its like riding a roller coaster. But I think the challenge of having a saltwater tank adds to the hobby. Troubleshooting problems and watching it while its being "good" and stable is greatly rewarding. The best advice is to make slow changes and be patient. And water changes can be your best friend.

Couldnt agree with this more. Lost a small fortune in SPS thinking that I knew better and I could somhow figure it out when so many others didnt. If you must go with some corals...go with some easy ones that dont cost a fortune until you figure it out. Styplos, frogSpawns , duncans and Blastos are good beginner friendly corals that look awesome if you are going to jump right in.
