After a year and a half in the hobby I have finally upgraded. I will still be invested in my Aquatop Recife 40g cube, but man am I ready for this new journey with the Aquaforest. I have learned a ton in the last year. I have fought the most extreme algae issues and I’m still here, I’d call that a WIN. This will be a slower build and hope to begin cycling in a couple months.

I never did document my progress from my first ever saltwater tank, but the side by side picture is from when I started to the current status of the tank.

To say I am excited is an understatement! I hope many of you follow and enjoy this thread. I am ready to keep on reefing!

Congrats on the new tank, looking forward to following along! About 3 months in with my oceanguard 605, and I'm loving it.
