My name is Mike Montgomery. I had aquariums 25 years ago and just got back into the hobby. I have a 90 gallon freshwater tank and a 55 gallon reef tank. First time with corals. They are so brilliantly colored. We just bought a 41 gallon corner tank for mostly coral. We will be setting that up in January. I love these forums. So much information.

Hi Mike and Welcome! Glad you returned to hobby and joined.

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). Thanks for sharing photo - LOOKING GREAT!

This might help you find people local to you in Plainfield:

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:
