Default Hi let me re introduce myself

I used to be Quagmire, that was 3 or 4 years ago. Due to moving around Ive had my tanks shut down during the time Ive been off the board.
So the other day I noticed one of my little 25g tanks, and well you know how it works. It kept nagging at me, its only a small tank, whats the big deal, if I set up a nano, Ive already got most of the equipment. So I dug around some of my boxes, and found the fish stuff, opened it up and immediately thought, what is all this crap? I didn't realize how much fish stuff I never threw away. So lets see, I have lights..check, power heads..check, liverock.. nope, lots of dead rock. OK so if I pick up a bag of sand and 10lbs of liverock , mix it with the dead stuff, it should all work out in time. Off to Golds I go, OK forgot he's closed on Thursday. No problem, there are 3 more stores I can hit on this end of town. But first lets check the computer. Prodibio whats that? looks promising, lets see who sells it. Off I go to the fish store thats about as far on the other side of town as you can get. Nice guy at Red Coral. Shopped around at 3 different stores. got home with what I remembered. And looked deeper in the closet to get the tank stand and spotted the 40g cube. Hmm wonder if my halides still work? OK so I have my halides and its a waste to let them sit in the closet, so lets see, 40g cube ...check, power heads...check, live rock... sort of, stand and , well I don't see any cracks, so also a sump. OHH and whats that my old trusty Euro reef skimmer, best bang for the buck skimmer ever made
Picked up the other odds and ends today along with more LR, and everything I forgot yesterday. Got everything set up proper and now I can look at my first tank in at least 3 yrs. Not much to look at yet but it has promise. It will also be my Prodibio test tank.
