Welcome back! What kind of setup are you looking to start?

Thanks Jeff!

Well, I really miss the custom 45 gallon LED setup I had before. Wish I have never sold it before moving house. That stand grouper therapy built, man....makes me cringe that I sold it. Loved that setup.

I have been eying the threads but nothing is really jumping out.

Zeroing in on the CADLIGHTS Artisan II 50 gallon cube....but have reservations.

Ultimately, I am planning to start with up to a 93 cube now and then plan my large tank and fish room build over the next year or so. We are settled into the new house, my daughter is 3 years old now so things are easier.

If a cool setup came up complete, even if it was not a cube, like a 120 or something I would jump on a good deal. I have my eye on a 60 cube but the price is not right primarily as I don't want the livestock which has been priced at 1500 alone. I just want a complete setup so I can start from scratch and enjoy stocking the tank.

Guess I will float around the FS threads with the hopes something pops up soon and if nothing comes through I will talk to a couple local sponsors before going for the CADLIGHTS.

Also, thinking about an Elos setup. Looking at the MIDI and larger.

I would just plan your large tank and do it all at once instead of doing a smaller one now... don't divide the resources.. both $ and energy

I know your right. I need to slow my roll regardless of which direction. Just reached event horizon recently not having a reef in the house.

My new house has several perfect spaces for a large tank build and fish room. There is also an indoor swimming pool that has an equipment room that could also serve as a possible equipment area.

Thx.

Well, after much debate here at home decided to pull the trigger on a nano for now.

Went with a custom built Pico S III from picoaquariums.

Ordered a AI Nano (Black) too.

So, I am officially going to get back in the water and back active on ARC again :yay:

Will be headed to our local sponsors ASAP for supplies. The fun begins.
