Getting back in the hobby!

It’s been almost 10 years since I’ve had a tank and I’m ready to dive back in. it feels like so much has changed. I was previously a member of LivingReefs forum but it looks like there is not much activity on the forum now. All of my “go to” members have either left the hobby or stopped posting so I’m starting over again here!
I had a 90 gal FOWLR and some zoas but gave everything away when I left the hobby. Boy, was that dumb! I’ve started a list of all of the things that I will need and at least once a day I think to myself “oh yeah, I also need ..…”. Whew, I forgot how expensive the startup process can be.
First order of business is selecting a tank. I want glass, in the 125-150 gallon range. I will also be purchasing a sump/skimmer from LifeReef and considering adding a refugium.
I’m so excited to be back but also a little overwhelmed with all of the decisions. I started reading posts and looking at build threads last night. It’s so nice to have a group of people that are willing to share their experiences and knowledge.
Welcome to Reef2Reef! There have been a lot of changes over the last 10 years for sure, mostly advances! Glad you're joining us!
