Jeffster Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Hi, just starting again after 25 year break. I have a 36 and a 60 gallon tank that have been cycled and have fish , a shrimp and Anemone. The 60 is to be a reef tank , it has a green chromis and a candy cane shrimp a striped Blenny and 2 snails. A few more fish and some corals to go. There is a 20 gallon refugium with sand and algae. It’s going good so far. I will post pictures after it gets stocked down the road. I have a lot to learn after taking time off, things have changed since the 90s. Peace to all.

albertareef Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Welcome (back) Jeff. I think you may have just taken the prize for longest hiatus - lot of us on here have taken multi-year breaks but 25 is a big one. Indeed, lots of the tech has changed somewhat (it's kind of fun catching up on that) but good husbandry and patience rules as always (harder said than done for sure). Lots of knowledgable and helpful peeps on here if you run into questions. Looking forward to seeing pics of the new setups when you get stocked. Cheers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
