Rick & Kenda Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Hi, we are joining as a couple, Rick and Kenda. I used to build saltwater aquariums back in the late 80s but I haven't had a tank since then. My wife has never done saltwater aquarium keeping. So, I guess I am relearning while she is learning. The technology has come a long way since 1989 and we are excited to get our first new tank started. I drilled a 55g last weekend. Ended up drilling the back since I couldn't be sure the bottom wasn't tempered but it went quite smoothly. It was easier than I thought it would be. Next is building a custom stand and we plan to go with a canopy setup. If anyone has a old sump they don't need, I 'd love to take it off your hands. Anyway, Hi to All!!
