Glad you're here John. I know the tank adoption story too - I bought my daughter a fish tank and it turns out it's actually my tank, just in her room with her fish in it.

I'm curious, what's ATC? I've heard of the ARC before, but not that one.

Hi John and Welcome! Glad you joined. Its a great hobby for couples. For us, its varied who is taking the lead on what, but my BF has lately taken over the lead in water testing (since he wants nice corals and wanted water testing more than I have time or desire to do). He's also taken over my water changes, but then I found him complaining AND not wanting me to help (but complains...), so I brainstormed and created a new task of holding hose in bucket and reporting on water level... When I do water changes instead I used my low maintenance hoses (multiples connected) that run out the door and to street drain... My way was easier and I enjoyed doing it (and it was faster), but he wanted his way, and now by "helping" he has stopped complaining about his harder water change bucket method. Over time, sure it will evolve for you, if you want it to evolve for you.
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 is a good reference book type online article I still review:
