Hello All.
I was out of the hobby the last few years and just recently got back into the hobby.

I am going to document all the steps of this setup so that I can look back and see the progress.

thank you all.



Let it begin.....

Congratulations on the new tank! The planning stage is the best time to start a build thread!
 
Congratulations! I have been running a JBJ 45 gallon for many years, let me know if you have any questions. My biggest dilemma that I still struggle with today is whether to use a cover or not. I ended up with a small glass cover over the overflow area and the rest is open. I have to pick fish very carefully or they jump out.
