Hi everyone, rekindling the passion after a few years away.
Have had a dry Juwel 350 Trigon sat in corner of my lounge for too many years (honestly, it was just too big to move) after I had a first marine attempt go disastrously wrong for an unknown reason.
So have decided to recommission it with as little outlay as possible, budget constraints.

Bit of background, had a breakdown many years ago, have struggled, currently rebuilding more than just the tank. Trying this as much as therapy as anything.

Will provide pics etc as account permits going forward.

Welcome to the forum. :)

For stress-free fishkeeping, stay freshwater, and stock peaceful fish suited to your tapwater. :)
I don't keep fish, I keep water. Water keeps fish.

No, to be honest I will probably just go really basic "average joe" tropical. Always loved Cardinals - still do, dont know why, oh and pink corydoras (?) - catfish to me ;).
Spent far too much money back then, go back to what I loved, a nice community tank. Sorry to anyone that offends.
