Hi all-- new entirely to aquariums. However I moved into a house where the previous owner left a huge tank and all the equipment at the house. I've been toying with getting it up and running again. I figured the first step is letting ya'l know what he left and what the setup is. I uploaded the pics I took opf the equipment to a gallery here:

From a bit of research looks like a pretty hefty light system, bioballs (sp?), etc.. Also, he had a float valve attached to a RO water system to keep the water level constant. Best I can tell, the big white box is to refrigerate the water. I measures the inside dimensions of the tank and calculated it to be approx 22x22x70, so about 153 gallons.
Looks to have some old residue in it, but nothing has been wet in there for over 2 years (he passed away before we bought the house) so I'm not sure how much of a problem in terms of pathogens, etc., the residue may be.
Any tips, builds, considerations, etc., for a beginner?
