Long time lurker, first time poster
Ive been in the hobby for many years, with lots of ups and downs. Ive had times I was 100% into my tank, and others where it was pulling teeth for me to clean the glass. My wife and I moved into our first home about 3 years ago, where I upgraded my old Solana tank to a 24 gallon IM lagoon. Came home a few weeks ago from a long weekend in the mountains to water on the floor.. oh no.
Called a friend to bring over a spare tank so I could save what I could. I was ready to give up, try to sell the livestock that survives, and be done with the hobby. My wife quickly snapped me out of that nonsense, and mentioned that when we moved into house I wanted a different tank, but we couldn't afford it. She told me go for it.
So here we are! Parts are starting to trickle in, and the tank is scheduled to be delivered this Friday.
