Getting back at it

Reef Ready · Mar 18, 2022

Hey guys!! Glad to be here!! Its been about 6 years since I last had my hands in a saltwater tank. I had kept fish tanks all my life and reef tanks starting at the age of 16. After a year and a half or so I got a job at my LFS working in the saltwater department (met my fiancee there too). I worked there for a few years gaining experience before I got promoted to department manager and ran things for a few years. After over 4.5 years at the shop I felt burnt out and ended up quitting that job and leaving the hobby all together. Well its been about 6 years but my fiancee convinced me to set up a tank with her and here we are. We have purchased an Aquatop 24 and did a few modifications to it. looking forward to watching this tank develop and mature for a while! Super pumped to be back at it!
