Nothing to see here... yet anyway.

Hello all! I hope this message finds everyone in good health and happy holiday spirit. I'm not so new to the hobby of reef keeping, but have been watching from the sidelines for almost 10 years now. I hope to start a build shortly, as the technical aspect of the build is a part that excites me just as much as the rewarding aspect of maintaining reef pets. I will definitely be keeping my eyes on the marketplace listings, as well as my lfs. Thank you all in advance for the warm welcome!

Welcome to R2R Pete. Watching for ten years? Looks like you've got a lock on the patience part of the hobby.

Hi Pete and 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 wish I had started during planning phase, and it sounds like that is where you are right now. 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)
