Hi, new here but not to hobby

[Luke_Durrant]

Hi all just found you after being a member of another popular UK reef forum and having enough of the politics there so here's hoping it's better here I currently have a home made 260L marine aquarium that's been settled in for a while I'll add some pictures of it below and I'm currently in the progress of upgrading to a 500L tank so wish me luck and I look forward to perving on your tanks and chatting with you all

Welcome and nice tank! Everyone is extremely laid back and helpful here, I don't think you will have any issues!

Welcome to R2R! Nice tank and a very interesting concept. I don't think I've ever seen a tank that close to the floor before. I like it. More like a living table.

Hello and welcome! Great start. Looking forward to more pictures as you go! Start a build thread. I think a lot of us would be interested in your setup.

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state.
