Starting my first reef tank!!

Bdoncford · Apr 27, 2020

Hey guys!! I got into planted tanks about 2 years ago and now I'm ready for the next step and I'm converting my system to a reef tank. Here's my aquascape so far. I got a while untill I can fill the tank with water as I still need more supplies but I have a few frags growing out in my brothers tank. Here's my aquascape so far. Any suggestions for coral placement??

Welcome!

Nice aquascape.

Why don't you start a build thread so we can follow along with your progress?

Welcome to R2R!!! I encourage you to first focus on water stability. Coral placement will be impacted by your lights and what type of corals you plan to keep - what are your plans?

Welcome... Coral placement depends on the coral... Hard to pre plan 'exactly' where they will go.

Hello and WELCOME!... I call BS.. no one is "starting my first reef tank" and does aquascaping that awesomely. My first attempts at rockwork looked like a 5 year old playing with playdo. :D

For real though.. LOVE the scape. Glad you've joined R2R as well. This group of people are great, share a common interest, and are super helpful. Welcome to the team!

Lol I swear it's my first reeftank. I did have freshwater though before this. I have been searching for loads of inspiration over the past few months and my buddy just gave me a ton of rock for "free" so I had lots to work with. It took me about 3 days to glue the rocks together how they are now. Thanks for the warm welcome.
