There is no mention of a "before" in Gen 1:1.
He started with darkness and water and went from there.
Slot A...tab B, etc.
Where did he get the darkness and water from?
From nothing.
God created everything from nothing.
It is written..."And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:" (Rev 10:6)
Correct God did create the Heavens and the Earth from nothing and He did all of this BEFORE the 1st day as is stated in Genesis 1.
I think you have misread Gen 1:1.
Especially in ight of the following verses defining how He did it during the "following" six days..

You are correct the six days are FOLLOWING the creation of the Earth in Genesis 1:1

The fault in Bible complications is not with God or the Bible, but with men who refuse to believe what God says and think we have to interpret what He says in order to get the meaning. Dake Bible -Mark 11:17 note
