I had several reef tanks around 12 years ago. Our local electric company couldn't keep the electricity running for 4 days and dispite my husband running out and buying a gasoline generator I lost alot. I posted in my local marine club online forum and told them first come, first serve it's all going. I just couldn't start over again this was the third time in 5 years. Fast forward: My husband purchased a whole house generator. Then asked me, wouldn't you like to have another salt water tank? WOULD I? I'm starting over from scratch. Looking at starting a 110 gallon. LEDs were just coming out, I used to have metal halide. I want refugium/sump and I have been pricing some local shops to bring it in and set it up for me. I'm so excited to be back in the hobby.
Back again

Congrats! I hate that you had the outage back then. I’m glad that you can come back now, especially with such a big tank! Welcome back!
