Hello all. I am new to this forum and also to SW. I have a 12g fluval edge reef set up (well, the beginning stages anyway).

*9lbs very porous LR
*20lbs LS
*50W Heater
*Stock filter but changing soon to a HOB filter/skimmer
*Hydor Koralia Nano 240 Pump 240GPH

Livestock

1 Perc
1 BTA
5 blue-legged hermit crabs
1 Skunk cleaner shrimp
1 Peppermint shrimp (to eat aiptasia)
3 Astrea snails

So far I am loving this hobby. Although I am new to SW, I have owned FW tanks in the past. I have always wanted to try SW, but was too scared (heard horror stories, like spending hundreds of dollars only to have it crash and all die), but decided to finally take the plunge. I look forward to learning from all of you experienced hobbyists and hopefully have some success stories to share one day soon.

Will be posting pic soon.

Any tips to help me with my new reef tank are welcomed
