So as I started to break down my original 150 gallon aquarium I found myself wanting to desperately stay in the hobby. But between raising a family consisting of my wife and three boys & working a demanding job that occupies 19 hours a day Monday through Friday. Few options of staying in the hobby were available. But I stumbled upon the JBJ 45 RL All-In-One aquarium and decided that the size would be small enough to make caring for it manageable (and not to mention extremely affordable). But it would be large enough to accommodate my vision of what I beautiful aquarium should look like. So I apologize in advance because most of the photographs will be taken with my Apple iPhone 6S Plus and not with my Canon 7D Mark II DSLR. But if time permits I will definitely snap some high resolution photographs. So I hope you decide to tag along and share your comments, thoughts and suggestions.
