Hi guys,
I've been browsing these forums for a while now and finally decided to sign up now that I am getting back into the hobby.
I grew up in Virginia about an hour from DC and moved to the Boston area about 3 years ago. My interest in saltwater tanks started when I was in high school. I decided to start my own 29g saltwater FOWLR which I ran for a couple years until I went off to college. I was moderately successful but my biggest issue was patience.
Four years and a college degree later I started up my 29g again this time with some upgrades and bigger plans. I even joined the DC metro area aquarium society (WAMAS) and had a great time as a paid member. This was short lived however as I soon got a new job a little over 8 months later that brought me to the Boston area. I lived in an apartment in Natick for 2+ years before my wife and I bought and moved into our first house in Weymouth just this past summer.
Now that we have our own place I decided it would be a good time to get back into the hobby. Even though I still have all the equipment from my original setup, I am planning to sell/get rid of most of it to start fresh. I have been eyeing up the JBJ LED Nanocubes since they are aesthetically pleasing and clean/compact enough to convince my wife that it belongs in the living room and not our basement.
I'm nowhere close to an expert on anything and will certainly post more questions than I can help to provide answer to other members but I look forward to getting to know you guys. Thanks for reading!
