Hello everyone

[luthier58]

Grew up with freshwater aquariums, gave my last one away about 20 years ago when I moved. Someone just gave me a nice 75-gallon tank and stand, life has slowed down (about to retire) so it seems like a good time to get into a new(ish) hobby! Still gathering information (and getting set up); I'll post pics when I start to build.

Welcome! Glad you joined. Its a great hobby for retirement (or any time of life!)

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). No time is too early!

This might help you find people local to you in Memphis:

This article was sponsored by @MarineDepot at www.marinedepot.com. Introduction The marine environment is one of the most complex systems on the planet. The aquarium you are about to set up is only a tiny sliver of the vast ocean, but it is no...
