I'm bringing home a new 75 gallon empty tank and oak stand, and want to slowly bring an ocean reef community to my apartment as well! I don't make alot of money so i'll really have to start slow with one thing at a time, but i'm very determined and fascinated by this new hobby i've found! I have two LFS's in the area, but i've been told this is the best place to learn because no one here is trying to sell me anything! I have been doing alot of research but any advice on the next step I should make in this slow process i would greatly appreciate! -Bill
I am a newbie to C-Sea and this hobby, but i was told this is the place to be!

First of all, welcome to a great hobby that will bring you great satisfaction if you have patience and a desire to learn something new. When I started 6 years ago, someone put this book in my hand and it was the best thing that happened to me.

The next thing I should share with you is to ask lots of questions before investing in equipment. There are inexpensive things you can get away with, but there are a few items that are worth saving your pennies to do correctly the fist time. The good news is that you've found this forum, and most people here will steer you clear of the cheap solutions that will cost more in the long run.
I hope you enjoy this hobby as much as the rest of us. Good luck.
