    I am new to the saltwater community at 3reef.com. I currently do not have a tank but I am looking to purchase a smaller tank for fish and corals. I looking forward to being an active member on this forum.

    Thanks for all future help and answers,

    Josh

    Welcome. The bigger the better for tank size, just keep that in mind.

    Hello, jmblec2 is absolutely right !!! I'm 2months in and have a 200g. 5clowns lots of hermits and a few snails. I already put Anemones in which are happy and my levels haven't changed. Other than Ph, calcium and selinity the rest is always perfect. Good luck with your setup and Welcome

    For those of you joining us that are new to the hobby - the best piece of advice you'll get around here as a saltwater newbie is 3Reef's slogan
    "Go slow, let it grow."
    And for those experianced hobbyists joining us - it's still good advice :p
    good luck and post pics soon :)



    read these and then come back and ask about anything you still don't understand. we'll get you squared away and on the right path :)
