Welcome back, its about bloody time
Most everything is still the same except for a few skimmer advancements. Tunze still rocks. Vortechs might be new to you although I don't think so. IMO its just as pricey to get back in as it ever was. Lots of good deals to be had around here on used stuff though Your kids are probably the perfect age to start learning about reef tanks!

No kidding! Hey Jesse, good to see you coming back to your senses. I left for a year, but kept all my old gear, mostly, minus the tank. I went with a 90 wide, and I'm happy enough with that size. Although for you, if you're going to fill it with awesome SPS again, you should get a really big tank!!

Hey Jesse...
When I clicked on the link I expected to see a old fart that was into reefing back before water was invented. Good to see you back, how long has it been 2...3 years? I don't think a whole lot has changed, feed hard....skim harder! Go big or go home...180g or bigger! |

I left in 2004 and just got back in this summer. Moved in '04, had kids and never did set up a tank during that time until now. It took me a little bit of getting used to everything again. I had kept all of my old equipment from 5 years ago (surprisingly not much of it was outdated). I spent a couple of months researching (mostly posting questions on here) to see what was new. T5's are new, so I jumped on that bandwagon in combination with my existing halides. I never knew about the zeovit system until now - giving that system a shot. I guess Beckett skimmers are a bit outdated now (but I'm still using one) - Bubble King skimmers are the rage now. It seems that a lot more people are using 2 part dosing that I remember from back then. Herbie Overflows were new to me when I came back in. All in all, these new things are good and I'm soo glad to be back into the hobby and being broke again .
Welcome back to the hobby! |

Thank everyone!! I feel warm and tingly already!! =o) Nothing better than starting new. I'm heading out to JLs this weekend hoping to get more insight of the tank I'll be setting up and equipment needed. As for what corals to keep I haven't decided yet. It'll probably mainly softies/lps to start. And I want an pink anenemoemoene for my two daughters. =o)
I'll post more later. Oh how are the Euroreef skimmers now a days ? or are the Bubble Kings the way to go ? |
