I'm not a "newbie" but not really experienced either. I have a 55 gal and a 29 gal. I've had them for a couple of years but I wanted to set up a new tank, 75 gal, and can't for the life of me remember all the steps in doing so. I am sure I'll have questions and I appreciate any help I can get.

Welcome! Glad you joined.

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. Like you, 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). Entirely up to you, but you might even want to consider doing a thread for each tank (but you only get once badge)

This is a good reference book type online article I still review (same thread @Kennya also recommending):
