Hey guys new here but not to the hobby. I have been in and out of the hobby over the years. I am looking to get back in but not sure what way to dive in lol. I have had a variety of sizes from 150 down to the redsea 250. I was thinking of starting small maybe the fluval 13.5? I'm thinking of a AIO this time around. Any thoughts guidance thanks. Jay

Welcome to the community Jay! Personally I live the AIOs. The tough question always come down to "is the tank big enough to hold the inhabitants you want". LOL :-)
 
Jay, welcome to the club. Seems like until recently people said go 20 to 40 to get started. But with your experience and as well designed as the new smaller tanks are I have a blast with your 13. My 15 peninsula is one of my favorite thanks. Best of luck
