Spi Restart of an old tank


Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm back again, previous nick was Spivia if anyone remembered me I was crazy about drifting (dead and gone in Spore and Reefing) and unfortunately I am unable to use my previous Hotmail email, 

But we can never get out of this hobby 

The last time I quit due to my chiller breaking down on me and i had personal issues so i didn't even decom and just disappeared, 

And because of this Covid19 I just got so irritated with looking at my old empty tank, and decided what the heck 

So now I am restarting and redoing my old tank up, 6 yrs worth of watermarks to clean and polish with cerium oxide, it's really tough work having sustained 2 counts of stroke attack, life has been hard these past few years, but this time I am doing the tank in the low maintenance way
