Evening all,

I've been lurking here for a few weeks plucking up the courage to post. I have kept freshwater for a few years and decided in February I needed a new challenge, so I bought 1ooL tank, cannister filter and some RO saltwater... (I did do a couple of months research too)

I've relied on the internet for lots of help and advice, but I am finding it very addictive and very rewarding.

I am loving it so far :)

Welcome Stuart to R2R. I'm glad you found the courage to say hello. We're all here to help so be sure to ask questions along the way if you have them. Tanks looks good.

Welcome. You'll need a CC (Credit Card) in this Hobby. Just a few helpful tips if I may. You leathers will need more water movement over them. Move your internal filter/power hear to the right corner and face it to point across your leathers. You will need to find a better place for the one nearest your powerhead/filter. Relocate the heater that is on the right side to make room. Cheers

Welcome to R2R!! Your tank looks great :)
Do you have any other fish besides the clown fish?
