Back to this hobby agian

Apart from the fish and saltwater everything else seemed to have changed. I had a 6x2x2 tank, steel frame covered in fibreglass with a glass front, homemade under gravel filter. Four five foot tubes three were called trulites and one grolux. Three separate heaters with external thermostats, tufa rock, living rock, collected sand and natural seawater.. Also had a large external power filter hooked up. Did plenty of water changes and the tank thrived, mixture of fish, inverts etc but no coral. Entering the hobby again is like taking a science degree but I'm loving every minute.
