Hey Folks,

I just wanted to say hey and introduce myself. I am a dad of twin boys, married for 28 years to an awesome lady, and retired. I have been a fish hobbiest for most of the last 40 years. The last time I tried saltwater was more than 10 years ago. It appears technology has come a very long way since then. My wife is doing a 34 gallon reef cube set up very successfully. We are currently looking into doing a 180 gallon fish only salt tank. We are going to focus on angels, tangs, butterflies and similar disposition type fish.

Currently I have been reading on floor loads, DIY wet/dry/sump designs, the need for UV, and protein skimmers. I have a ways to go before I am able to confidently set this up, so I will be reading, lurking, and asking questions as I go.
So for now, hello!
