Now that we’re settled in our “forever” home (I’m never moving again), my son is after me to set up a tank. He has one but lives 10 hours away, so wouldn’t be much help other than consultation. I had several tanks years ago but not in the last 3+ decades.

An indoor hobby would be nice and I’d prefer to stay with fresh water for simplicity...if I do this. Probably 55 to 75 gallons. I’m sure the technology has advanced but wondering if anyone here has some relevant experience.

Also wondering about weight. A 75 gallon setup would be about 800 lbs. We’re on a crawl space but it would be easy to add a floor jack to ensure no settling.

At this point I could easily be talked out of it!
