Its been a couple yrs since we left the reef and our family decided we missed the hobby!
We chose a 40g breeder for our new piece of the ocean, planning softies this time around. I built a stand from rocket engineer plans. The tank got wet last night, w a base layer of caribsea sand. Ive ordered the TBS package for the rest!!!

Welcome back!
 
Thanks everyone for their warm welcome!
Our tank so far while waiting for the 2nd half of the tbs package. We added a couple tankmates, and a few cuc critters to stay ahead of any blooms. I'm planning on replacing the glass top w egg crate or a jumpguard screen to help oxygen transfer
