Just recently returned to the hobby after about 15 years. My previous experience was with a 50 gallon FOWLR tank. Had some nice luck for years with it but after a short-circuit from a bad powerhead nuked the tank I put it all away. A couple months ago I decided I wanted to get back into but move into reef keeping. I'm stunned by how much has changed over the past decade and its all been for the better. I've started this new journey with a Fluval EVO 13.5 tank in my office with a couple clowns and just now getting ready to add the corals. Of course after getting that all settled I decided I wanted to go bigger and have an even nicer setup so I could run all types of corals and also setup a JBJ45-RF in my home. This tank has been running for a month and I'm in the process of stocking it with live stock. I'm really excited to have found this forum and while I've been lurking for months and researching and absorbing all the information I could from the net, it will be nice to have a place to pose questions and pictures. Look forward to interacting with you all. Happy Reefing!
