After a ~9 year hiatus, I decided to return to the hobby. From lurking around looks like a lot changed but a lot stayed the same. Currently, I have a 125g African Cichlid tank and I'm building a 30g nano reef as we speak. See ya'll around!
Good to be back!

Glad to have you back! I did exactly the same thing a few years ago. Honestly, it breaking down my display wasn't so much work I would have done it and gotten out all together. But I kept it running during my hiatus and when it came time to replace the T5 bulbs I decided that I really wanted to check out one of those fancy LED light fixtures. When I took my break Radions had come out but the Gen 1 was really, really expensive. I got myself a pair of new one's for Christmas and dove right back in.
Thank ya. I broke down a JBJ RL-30 when I left the hobby and I have carried it with me since then, always saying "I'm going to restart this one day." Welp...here we are. I've got an order in at BRS to replace some aging pieces and add a few new ones. Grabbing parts for getting power to my office area and plumbing for the ro/di today.
Back when this tank was running it always felt like a struggle to keep it in a state that was acceptable. I plan to do it right this time around.
