So it begins.
I've taken the last 5 years off of reefing due to work and a crazy ex wife that hated fish tanks. Life happens, things change, and you never know what's going to happen.
For 5 years, I've been lurking this forum trying to stay up to date on everything that's happening. 5 years of planning my ultimate tank.
3 months ago my wife (new one, loves fish) and I moved into our 4th house together. We finally got back to where we wanted to be (SoCal) and we both retired. When we were buying the house, she said, "wow, that corner would be awesome to have a cube tank. Think you could do a reef setup there?"
I about died.
So now that we are about to gut another house, we're putting a 170 gallon cube tank into that remodel.
While I may have had a 5 year break, I still have a lot of friends in the industry. With a couple of calls, I had a line on a 170 gallon cube. Tomorrow, I make the 10 hour, 700 mile drive to retrieve the tank. This is going to be strange for me, I haven't really driven long distances in a long time (I'm a pilot.)
I'm going to be documenting the whole build. I'm going to be leaning on you for some advice because I can't do this on my own.
Who's ready?
