It's a great start. Welcome back to the hobby. You're right the hobby has changed a lot, and a lot more expensive. Biocubes are a solid Nano.

Price and selection i really noticed. Tech and how to run the tank is another thing I noticed.

Added a diamond back sand sifting goby and a cleaner shrimp to my tank. Both are doing great.

Coming along great! Solid tanks I ran mine for over four years until I upgraded at the beginning of the year.

Added these pair of Bangai Cardinals to the 32 biocube. They made themselves at home. Excused the ugly pase of a maturing tank.
