Since I was a child I have always had exotic pets, like reptiles and fish. Years back I had a 20 gallon reef with HOB filter and E-Bay T-5s. It was up for a few years before I neglected it due to work/family obligations. But, now my career has matured and my children are getting ready to leave home, and I have more time and money to devote to the hobby, I have decided to jump back in. I started a 15 gallon cube w/ a 10 gallon DIY sump a few months back.
