So Im in the process of getting corals for my tank. And the closest LFS is about a 100 min drive from me. Since I got my tank I have been hit by coral ads from all these places but I'm not sure if they are scams or not.

I’m planing on starting a new saltwater aquarium for the first time, I have done a lot of research and it seems the hobby needs weekly if not daily maintenance once the tank is established. I will most likely get Red Sea 350 with the sump but nothing like monitoring system or dosing system yet...
