It's been over 10 yrs since my sump cracked and I lost everything..........of course it happens when I am away for the weekend, circumstances at the time left me with no choice as I had to deal with elderly parents and my business to abandon the hobby. Fast forward to a few months ago, I sold off most of my old equipment except the tank, as there are not many people who can accommodate a 290g.
I started by testing if the tank was still able to hold water and after a week filled I decided to get back into the hobby! After purchasing some equipment, I was off! My first trip back into the fish store was a shocker as I knew things were expensive but talk about Jaw breakers! i started with holiday buys from online vendors and some local purchases, I forgot how small these frags are, especially in a 290g!
Some shots of my tank after 3 months!
