Getting back in after 25 years
Getting back in after about 25 years. Just got a 90 gal. tank and we are waiting for it to cycle. A lot of things have changed over the years. I hope I can manage to do it all right. I am still waiting for the beaded oak to finish my cabinet. Anyway, it is going to be nice to have the internet available when I need to find answers. This looks like a great forum. Oh, I am waiting for 100 pounds of dry rock also. Hopefully it will be here tomorrow.

![]() To Reef Central Looks good so far Jim, I really like the arrangement you have there. Be sure to read the stickies at the top of this forum. As you mentioned, alot has changed over the years and a little brush up on the basics would be a good idea.

Reading a lot about DSB
I have been reading a lot about DSB and in fact one of the reasons I got on this forum was because of all the great atricles it has to offer us new guys. I am looking forward to reading more from the members and learing all that I can about keeping a reef tank.

I really like the cabinet that your building! Very cool concept! I too am restarting a tank after a break...it's only been about 1.5 years for me though. All I can say is once you get reef fever you can never get rid of it!

I'm sure you've already noted this, but running a marine tank is a lot like your day job.
