Reefers 60 and over

Very curious on us older reefers. I broke past the 60 year old mark and do love this hobby but at what point do you say "I just can't do this anymore " Its very easy to be younger and say I'll be doing this forever but the body doesn't stay strong forever. I'd love to do a bigger tank but I think Im gone settle on another AIO. What are your thoughts

Heavy lifting is my primary concern, and for all water transfers, I've arranged for electricity to do the work now. :)

I share that same concern

My recent tank is AIO 33 gallon and a connected 16 gallon started 2 years ago at 55. No desire to do bigger…big tanks just require more HP that I don’t have anymore.
Here I’m almost 2 decades ago…
