Welcome to the 'hood. I moved up to NYC from South FL, where I used to have a big 120g SPS tank. Finally set up my tank in NYC back in November (a nano). There's a huge community here with tons of experienced hobbyists and researchers. It's almost as good as the FL group, though FMAS was always a bit more active than I've seen here so far.
If you have any questions about how to adapt reefing to the NYC/Queens lifestyle, feel free to drop me a line.
