Just started a 20g fusion for my office. Previously had a 300g system in the home mixed sps, softies, lps all in. Previous to that o had several 40g units aggressive and some mixed. I'm excited about being back lots of changes since I stopped. Just started cycling, will be mostly softies, Zoes anemone and a few fish.
 
Just keep it simple. This hobby can definitely be very overwhelming at times, but once you realize what they said in that "keeping a goldfish book," it's all the same.. (salt aside) GL.
 
Sorry if I was a little blunt, but keeping it simple is definitely the key IMO. It all takes time for us to figure it out, but why win a chess game in "10" moves when it can be done in "5?" GL.

It's hard to stay away, I also was out for about 5 years and don't regret starting again, even when the floor is covered in water.
