[ENARP]

Ok. Thanks to the Vivid Aquarium people for the giveaway. I will start a thread. Don't expect a lot of posting, because this is going to be a "Slow Ride". Just getting started. Don't have time right now to go all out....I am gonna "take it easy"!

In this hobby patience is the key so going slow is not a bad thing. Tank looks great, scape and all.

Thanks for the compliments! This is a "new" tank, after not having a reef tank for 20 years. Taking it slow now will be easy. Lessons learned are like bridges burned....All of the advancements in the hobby and the improvements in equipment can't replace paying attention to the water parameters and making sure you tank is ready. 20 years ago we always said, "We weren't taking care of an aquarium, we were taking care of a water tank."

You're giving yourself excellent advice...lol. Slow and steady is a good thing. Looks like you're off to a great start.
