Hi all, I just wanted to introduce myself :). I'm from the Irvine area and I've been in the saltwater hobby since covid started. I watched finding nemo again back in 2019 while I was in middle school during the lockdown and thats when I decided I wanted to set up a saltwater tank. I eventually also got into corals after realizing how cool and colorful they were. As of now though, I've got a small 20 gallon nano(that I'm looking to upgrade since I've physically started running out of room), and its got a pair of clowns, a six line wrasse, a damsel, and a mandarin goby that I actually purchased off of someone in this forum. Over the last year I've grown to really like torches, so I have a lot in my small nano. Anyways, thats about it. Also I apologize about those messages I sent in year old forums my google account was compromised and my information was leaked so it wasnt me :confused:. Ill attach a photo of my tank below and I'd appreciate any advice you guys would have to give. I'm always open to ideas and willing to learn.

Welcome! Nice colorful tank you have there and hats off to you for starting early. I also started with a 20 gallon…..when I turned 45! Better late than never.

This hobby isn’t cheap, but we’ve got an awesome community of reefers here who make the journey a lot more manageable.

Keep up the good work!

There is a in house club meeting in Anaheim at a brewery, I am not sure if you make the 21 age limit yet but there is a wealth of information that goes to those meetings.

Yes indeed we have a local Club. Since we are in our own separate area, 21 years old isn't necessarily an issue.
Ill send you a DM with the Club info in case you'd care to come hang with some really cool reefers.
Nice tank by the way. You obviously have a wet thumb!!
