Back in the Hobby

welcome r2r.jpg
 
Hey all, been out of the hobby for 8 years. Just dove head first back into it. Feels good to be back. Also glad I didn't sell all of my old tank stuff. But man has things changed for the better.

Welcome Back! Glad you joined. I was just out your way last November and visited Pacific East Aquaculture. They do more wholesale, so call to ensure hours but WOW Dr Mac taught me so much! I video'd my experience (then went and found yummy MD steamed crabs for dinner!):


Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). Biggest changes have been lighting and food. Likely a lot of what you had is still usable.

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:
