Hi everyone I'm Jim. Been doing freshwater aquariums off and on for 20 yrs. Started with a 55 and about 15 yrs ago a fine gentleman gave me a 125 reverse flow oceanic. Built my own wet dry and enjoyed it for a long time. Last week I did a complete teardown clean and reset . My tank broke

So.... I replaced the tank on Craigslist but now I have a tank with a broken pane sitting. So I've decided to build a plywood aquarium, which has led me to you and your site . Lots of info here!!! I hope to build a 250 or 300 gal to use as my first saltwater tank while enjoying my new (used) 125. Any suggestions advice and criticisms will be appreciated


Thanks
