I would read everything that I could on this site and reefcentral.com. On reefcentral.com go to the "new to the hobby" forum and read the posts. It will answer a lot of your questions. Also take it very slowly. Educating yourself up front will save you a lot of time, money, and heartache down the road.

Meant to say jump over to the ARC (Atlanta Reef Club) site atlantareefclub.org.

Thanks! I Will Do That! And Trust Me When I Say I Know What You Mean When You Say Read Up! I Once Made A Huge Mistake And Purchased Too Many Fish Before I Knew What I Was Doing! In A Week Or So They All Died! So Now I Read Up Before Ever Buying Anything!

All three sites are great! You will need a few weeks off and alot of energy drinks to read all the good stuff on reefcentral, TRT and ARC. Good luck!!!
