Been lurking for a little a while, joined a few days ago, finally actually posting something.

I've had freshwater before, most recently a couple red belly piranhas but even that was 1 house and 5+ years ago. We're settled in what I hope is our home for a long time (moving stinks) so I started looking and researching and found this site.

Not going to lie I'm a bit overwhelmed. At this rate I feel as though I might never get around to actually having a tank as I'm pretty sure every time I read a post I have to go search more posts to explain additional items. What I wanted/liked even before I saw the following tank ( https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/felicias-40b-mixed-reef-predator-tank.211840/ ) is a mixed reef predator tank. I happen to have an empty 40G breeder tank but I feel like no matter how much I've read I'm no closer to even purchasing any equipment let alone starting to set something up.

So that's my story. Thanks for reading.

Have to disagree with you there. ;) I may live in St. Louis area (Glen Carbon) but I'm actually a Cubs season ticket holder.
Oh snap!!:D:D:D

Not going to happen, any question teaches us all something;):)
