Hi everybody, just a quick intro thread.
I'm getting back into saltwater after a long break. I previously had a couple of fish only systems for a few years ending in about 1998 or 1999.
This time around I'm not a broke teenager any more and I plan on getting into corals.

Welcome and welcome back! Glad you joined. That's about when I was in and got out for a while too. Coming back now is so much better than it was back then.

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)

This might help you find people local to you:

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