Hi there! I have well established 90G reef in the lobby of my Optometry practice. I’ve been maintaining it myself for about 25+ years. I’m sorta renewing my interest in the hobby and looking to modernize what I’ve got.

Welcome! Glad you joined. A *lot* has changed in 25 years, but if it's working successfully for you, ... take any modernization slowly... ask if it really helps you. Advances in remote monitoring might give you piece of mind. You likely have a lot of knowledge you might also share after all this while in the hobby. Glad you came to introduce yourself.

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:
