Hello Everyone! My Name is Kevin. I am just getting back into the hobby after 20+ years and just wanted to say "Hi" and warn you that lots of questions are probably forthcoming as I get back up to speed. I apologize in advance! 
The improvements in technology while I was away are just crazy! Very excited with the changes. For reference, I am going to be setting up a 72" x 18" x 25" (140 gal) mixed reef. I just setup my RODI/mixing station today, so hope to clean and start cycling the 50 lbs of live (now dead) rock that I saved from my setup back then, soon. See you in the forums!

Welcome back!
Hey All! Thanks for the add! New to the 'new rules' of Reef tanks. Had a 55 Gal saltwater tank in 2000. A couple of rocks, couple of clowns, couple of tangs and damsels. No CuC and didn't check parameters. I had no clue what I was doing. lol. lost one fish, but then had to deploy and sold everything. Spent a couple of months reading and researching before starting this time. 150G tank with all of the Apex bells and whistles. Currently 6 weeks in and added fish once ammonia was 0 (2 clowns, purple dottyback, sixline wrasse, and diamondback goby). Brown algae started about 3 weeks ago and now have GHA starting. Ammonia has been zero for the last 4 weeks, and I still have some nitrites and obviously nitrates. Definitely looking forward to reading through as many posts as possible and getting advice, Thanks!

Welcome to Reef Central. Nice looking setup.
Welcome! Looking really good
I just set up a 20 g nano reef and I’m totally obsessed.
Hi, I’m barb and I am a successful, experienced, freshwater multi aquarium fish keeper. I’ve decided I’m ready to do saltwater. So far so good . I have successful set up a 20 g nano reef tank, with only 2 fish and a tree coral frag , that are thriving beautifully. I am beginning to add more to the tank. Wish me luck and I appreciate all the enlightening conversation.
Welcome to Reef Central Barb. Good luck with your new tank.

Thank you! How do I do that? lol I should state that I'm also new to the forum world lol
