Aloha!

Long time reader, first time poster. I've been eyeing and debating building a tank for a few years now, and I finally have the blessing of the Missus to jump in. I'm picking up a used 32gal biocube and am looking forward to getting it set up and going

Here's a very good build thread for a 32 Biocube that you may find helpful:

That’s awesome. It is a great hobby. I’m just getting back into it myself. What kind of tank are you planning? I am planning my 40gal currently. Will probably be ready to put water in around the end of the year. I think I am going run with some easy soft coral lime GSP and Xenia even though can be invasive but I also love goniopora and torches along with some photosynthetic gorgonians.
I wish you all the luck
