Starting back up after 15 years

Hi everyone. Just introducing myself, since I’ve been lurking for a number of weeks and have decided to revisit the world of reef keeping. My knowledge is a bit rusty so I’ve been reading all my old books and articles.

About me: previous 150g mixed tank. My wife wanted the cast from Finding Nemo so they became my inhabitants. Ran the setup for about 2 years and the anemone I had took a ride in the powerhead one day. I never could save it. I donated all my fish to a LFS, and shut the hobby down. I’m between then and now, life happened (4 kids and a pandemic later) and I want to get back into the game.

I’ve been looking at the Fiji Cube 57g. Comes with a 20g prefab sump. Any thoughts? I plan to go the LR path. Haven’t decided on lights yet, but do know I love shrooms. I’m also planning to try my hand a DIY algae scrubber.

Anyway. I’m glad to be back.
Welcome back!

Welcome back to the hobby and welcome to the R2R community. I am here 6months and still doing homework and planning...slow and steady, not rushing it.

Good lock with your build.
 
Welcome to R2R!!
