Hi All,
Nice to see a very active forum, I am n00b to saltwater aquariums and have been planning on setting up my aquarium for a while. I did my online study and reasearch on different starter "things to know" and finally got my 40 gallon breeder tank.
I am planning to setup a reef tank with fish live rock and corals with a tunze 9004 in tank skimmer and 40 pound live rock and 55 pound live sand. (I dont have sufficient space for a sump as of now).
Getting Reef crystal salt, RO filter and heater, lighting and testing kits.
Am I missing anything which is critical component to start with?
I live in alexandria/arlington area so if there are other aquarist or nOObie in this area, I am interested in meeting or discussions.
I was introducted to this forum by another member and was told that we have meetings, is it a single meeting for all DC metro area or localized?
