Getting back into the hobby

Jeremy165 · Feb 17, 2025

Hello all! I'm in Sammamish, WA - a suburb of Seattle and I'm getting back into the hobby.

In approx 2002 I started my first saltwater aquarium (29 gallons) and then a handful of years later upgraded to a 75 gallon. In total I ran my saltwater tank for about a decade before selling everything as I moved out of state for a little while.

I blame facebook for putting the idea of having a saltwater aquarium back in my head! I'm shopping for 60" long tanks in the 112-150 gallon range and will order something in the next few days. I'm pretty excited!

I’ve been out for around 9 years. A couple weeks ago I ordered a 280g system. Things have gotten a LOT more expensive!! I’m literally around 300% over budget and the tank isn’t even wet yet. but even so, I’m excited! Welcome back! And yeah, Facebook had something to do with my getting back in also.
