+1 on posting pics of the aquarium

 

[Darth]

Pics of the aquarium plz.

 

[Jem45472]

Not much in it now, just a few fish. Been spending the last year researching and buying equipment. Gonna start loading up with coral over the next year.

 

[Jem45472]

If you guys insist. This is the before shot, need a few years for the after shot when everything grows out.

 

[Jem45472]

And this is where I'm heading hopefully.

 

[NYGuns]

That's really cool @Jem45472! What size tank is that?

 

[Jem45472]

125. I previously had a 700 gallon freshwater tank in the basement. Darth could have scuba dived in that one.

Welcome!

I used to be super into saltwater tanks. I had a 75 reef for years. At one point there were over a dozen tanks in my basement that were used to breed clownfish. I used to sell them to the local stores for about $10 each. I assume that you know about reefcentral.com?

 

[Jem45472]

I've been doing a lot of reading at reef central, that's why I'm late to the party here.

They have SOOOO much info there. Did you find the local club, Upstate Reef Society, on there? Now that it's getting colder, people will start paying more attention to their tanks and start posting more in the local club forum.

Yeah, I have looked through there. I see lots of Rochester and Syracuse area reefers, not really much in the Buffalo area. We do have a couple great stores, but they are expensive. I'll be searching Craigslist for someone local selling frags so I can save a few bucks.

 

[NirvanaFan]

Yeah, the Buffalo crowd hasn't been around as much over the past couple years. It used to be almost all Buffalo and Rochester.

Posted on reef central yesterday. Somebody had a beautiful 300 reef, with a Glock and s&w posters behind it.

Let them know how much I loved the tank, and logos behind it. Today my post was edited, and his picture gone. Obviously some snowflakes over there.

 

[NirvanaFan]

yeah... they keep things very clean and uncontroversial.
