Default Newbie to SW in Calgary! Hello!

Hi everyone, thought I'd say hello here on this forum as I've recently got into SW and am interested in hearing and reading more about local reefers club and SW keeping. I've done FW for years and wanted to finally try my hand in SW, I've started small with just a 33G, Protein skimmer, good H20 circulation, LR and a coralife 192W PC fixture to get some corals in a simple reef tank underway. Looking forward to learning more about everything SW and keeping more livestock and corals.

So, hello to all and thanks for the great forum and info I've already found and read here!!!

Mike

Welcome Mike! Your setup already kicks ##s on what I started with. I had no skimmer and 40 watts of NO light on my first tank. Good luck!
