Was going through old pictures and stumbled across these pics of my first saltwater tank (75g) I set up in December 1992 on a very limited 18yr college student budget. A whole lot wrong going on in there. Poor fish lol. I worked at a fish store when on break and remember scrounging for money to buy it (75g). And I remember being away at college when the HOB overflow siphon broke. I had to convince my mom to get it going with a makeshift tube I had wedged in there. She was not pleased!

Awesome! I also started with a very similar 75g, under very similar circumstances, in around the same time frame ('96).
