Welcome... it will be a great adventure for the whole family.Hi Everyone!
I'm returning to the reef scene after +15 years away. My wife and kids are excited about getting a saltwater reef tank, and so far are looking forward to this.
I just purchased a new to us drilled 90 gallon tank, and will be slowly setting it up of the next several months. We'll be going pretty slow on it as I have 6 kids who all want to eat! . I'm sure I'll have lots of questions as we move forward and looking to "meeting" a lot of you on the forums.
2 questions to start off. I have a bunch of old fashioned AC Powerheads of varying sizes. I've read that DC powerhead/wavemakers are the preferred way now, but are the older style still good to use? I'd love to recycle some of the stuff I have to help get setup faster.
Also, how much flow would you want the return pump to have? I also have several of them and am hoping one might be strong enough.
Thanks in advance!
