Hey everyone I've been hanging around for a few days. I have read the threads on the main wall. I'm pretty sure I'm going to start with a 75 gallon tank with a sump. I want to have a reef set up and introduce fish to it as well. Does anyone have any good place for me to research different fish/corals? Any help is greatly appreciated thanks!!
New to this where to start!!??

Welcome!:wavehand:
The forum is a great place with lots of knowledgeable people.
The internet has a lot of information but I still come here and get confirmation before taking action.
Everything depends on what you want to keep and how much money you have to burn

Welcome to the forum man! ;-)
There are plenty of people in here that will help you with what you need. Over in the main forum there is a New To The Hobby forum that I pretty much lived in for a few months.
Liveaquaria.com is a great place to research fish and corals
The best advice anyone on here will be able to give is to take your time and be patient with things. The more patient you are with things the better off your tank will be.
You've got alot of bigtime reef guys from up in your area that I've learned quite a bit from.
The search box is your friend. Chances are if you have a question it has been asked 50 times.
Any questions, you know the number!
Happy Reefing!!

75 with sump is a great choice for a first reef aquarium. You must have done your homework! There are fish/coral forums here on RC. Tip: use scientific names and research specific species whenever possible. In other words, learn how to search properly. There's a lot of misinformation out there. You must learn to quickly sort the good stuff from the bad. GOOD LUCK.
