Hello folks!
I have been away from the hobby for almost 20 years after having had a reef tank so many years ago.
Recently I have been getting the itch and started looking through what of my old gear was still serviceable.
I cleaned out all the dust and muck from my 110 tank and all of the equipment which I had used.

As it turns out, I needed to replace my main pump and lights plus alot of miscellaneous equipment.

After ordering and receiving much of what I ordered I am almost ready to start again.

I need to do some electrical work but that will be easy.

My goal is an SPS tank. After seeing what folks have achieved with LED lights I am excited to create another little reef.

Hopefully within a few months I'll have something to show!!!

Thanks for letting me join your group!!!
Welcome back to the hobby! 20 years ago, you been out of it for awhile. Always refreshing coming back to something way later and seeing all the technological improvements in w/e hobby it is.

Glad to see you back! GL on the SPS challenge!
 
Congratulations! (Will you be doing a full leak test? If I follow you correctly, it’s a tank that has been dry for 20 years?)
I will be filling the tank shortly with tap water and letting it sit for a while. Believe me, this is my biggest concern but all the sealant on the tank seems pliable. Time will tell.
