Hi everyone,

Back to the hobby after 10 years away. Just finished cycling a 65g, and hope to add plants soon. Next project: 35 hex that I picked up off craigslist for $25. Needs a new stand first...

Welcome back to the hobby

Thanks! It's good to be back. I'm amazed at the changes. No more substrate heaters, VHO, or metal halide. Now it's CFLs, T5HOs, and LEDs! I also think the "new" rimless tanks are ironic, because everyone used to say that my DIY tanks were ugly because they didn't have any rims! (I used to scrounge for old storm windows to make small fry tanks for my angels and mbuna).
