Hey all! Starting my build thread. I just got back into the hobby a few weeks and bought a used 45 JBJ AIO. I kind of like the AIO.

I just won a FREE tank in a raffle. Super lucky! It was a 70 gallon with sump, I know it is better but I opted for a 62 AIO with acrylic lenses for my prize instead.

I ordered a couple of sicce pumps for an upgrade before I get to it. I already have my live sand in bags read to go this weekend. I picked up my RO/DI and mixing saltwater tomorrow.

I plan to transfer all my current saltwater from the 45 to the 62 and the rest fresh saltwater. Then transfer all the liverock, corals and fish all same day.

When I bought the JBJ it had a Harpargero A100, they guy said he got good growth, colors look good so I went ahead and bought another and it came in today, already synced them up. I got excellent PAR when testing last week, I'll need to rent the meter again and test since it will be another light and more shallow tank.

Thanks all! I'm glad to be back in the hobby.

It's sitting in the kitchen waiting for me.

That looks great

I’m leaning toward an AIO for my next tank.

My current tank, a 50 gallon Oceanic doesn’t have a sump.
