I've been running tanks for years, but last July, I was laid off after nearly 10 years with the the company (TLDR: Outsourcing IT = Saving $$). So we moved to pay the bills while still looking for a new "home". Out went all my tanks and have been without a tank since October of last year. Last month started a whole new chapter with life. New job, new city... why not a new tank?!?! [HASHTAG]#excited[/HASHTAG]

Since I am renting for only year at this place, I went with something much smaller than what I am used to: JBJ Rimless 45 gal AIO

And here she is at 3 weeks cycling (4 days with lights):

More to come! Hoping to find a good LFS somewhere around here.

Very nice tank, I find with the downs in life my tank make life more relaxing. I like the aqua scape.

Thanks!

I couldn't agree more. The stress of making ends meet while unemployed eased with tank eye candy. Though, moving many states away (So Cal >> East Texas >> Milwaukee, WI over the course of 8 months) forced me to sell my 110 and 40. So happy to be back in the hobby. Can't wait to get my first coral and fish.
 
That is quite a move. Keep us posted as the additions happen:)
