Been lurking on here for a long time.

Had a 20H softy and LPS tank way back in 2007. OG Nano-reefer. Life, education, and numerous other hobbies have kept me out of saltwater since 2010.
In the last few years I have had nano freshwater planted tanks. A 5.5 gallon with a Pea puffer. Currently have a Crown tail betta in it. Have a planted 2.6 Fluval Betta with an Alien Betta.
I am in the process of setting up a 40 breeder reef tank in my office. I am very excited about this project as it is over double the water volume of any tank I have every ran.

Looking forward to finally interacting with community.

Welcome! Glad you joined. Sounds like you are in the right place!

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 under Forum > Member Aquariums and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)
