Hi, I’m Tom. My family got involved in a saltwater aquarium this fall. Our first one, 110gal. tank. I’m a pool guy by trade, figured I could catch on quick. Frankly it has been a lot of work, a ton of fun, and maybe we’re going to quick? I’ll share some photos.

Hi Tom and Welcome! Glad you joined. Seems its all working out for you but yes slow is always recommended in this hobby. ... but sometimes its hard to go slow, right?! <I'm guilty too>

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. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:
