I have spoken to many of you thru this board and thru the email system about the Dec 8th meeting for the NJ Reefer's Club meeting. This post is to inform you of all the details about the new facility. First I will let you know exactly what makes this facility so much more than some of the stores we have presently. Image if you will, a show tank that is 96" x 48" x 36". Big Tank comes to mind

, second Image if you can, 24 yes 24 180 gallon tanks loaded with corals. Lighting on these tanks are 3 400 watt 10,000k ushio bulbs with vho actinics. Forget about the size of their sump, swimming pool comes to mind. You name it they have, and if they don't they will get it for you. They will stock all top name brand products. Need Live Rock, they have 3,000 lbs curing in their 10 300 gallon vats. You want show size corals, corals bigger than your hand

they carry them too. what about you nano reefers. Well they haven't forgotten you either, they have small frag size all the way up to corals the size of a football. They carry SPS, LPS, and softies. They carry Clams as well. Their facility is 7,000 sq ft. of reefer heaven. their corals are healthy and beautiful.
Now where can you see this huge new place, They are located at 305 Jackson Ave in Hopewell Junction NY. They took a Barn and turned it into something spectacular. Pretty much like Gateway Computer. What's the name you ask. It is ReefSplendor. Now their coral and rock section is set-up. Twelve of the 180's just came on line last week, but should be well stocked in time for our meeting. they are not thru with their little venture into this addicting hobby of ours, They haven't finished their displays and right now do not stock many fish. If there is a fish or coral or piece of equipment that you are interested in, and you plan to come to the meeting, by all means when you email me with a comfirmation, then include that Item of interest and I will past it on to Dan and Joe and they will make sure they have what you want in stock waiting for you. They have a website up and running that does list the drygoods they carry. So if you wish to check out their site that address is www.ReefSplendor.com. I have had the pleasure to go to the store and visit with the owners and I fell in love right away. I have my eye on a couple of pieces already just need to move up to the new tank.

But this will truely be a great experience for everyone who attends. Now if you want to get into the door on the 8th I will need to have your name on my list.
icon_smile.gif
sorry this is somewhat of a private party. The only cost is an email with your name and wants on it.
icon_smile.gif
Want to be on the list. that's the easy part. Email Me at [email protected] and I will add you to it. In the future, any ventures to this facility, they kindly request that you phone ahead so that they can better serve you.

Great website!

"Welcome to Dellhost.com"

Sounds very cool except for fully stocking brand new 180's in less than a month. If this place is really all you say it is i'd be there daily!

Pojohnny,
icon_biggrin.gif
they are open to do MO now. I can attest to the selection and quality of their corals. If you are interested in any items give them a call. You may be down south in alabama, but that don't mean you can share the facility with us. Joe or Dan are both great guys, and either can help you out. they have this pale green hydropora that is like 8 inches tall. what a nice show piece. It took everything I could do to keep my mouth closed. Oh, Monkey boy. 12 of their tanks have been up and running for some time. I just watch them put the other 12 online last week. They were up and running in a closed loop, but not connected into the sump area. the tank parameters had to be at the right levels and the tempatures all had to match to go online.
icon_smile.gif
It took both of the men to open the shut off valve to make the connection. Very big valve you understand. I was there to watch them do the same with 5 of their 300 gallon vats also. It was a too cool thing. The flow has to be controlled on these tanks in the beginning and it was exciting to watch. I believe there was 6 of us there running up and own the aisle to check the tanks levels. watching for leaks in the plumbing with the added pressure. It was really great. I only wish I lived closer I would be there everyday.

the reason for the phone ahead is that they are only at 40% complete in their construction of what they are going to have. Can't wait to se what they consider a 100%. So they are and will be very busy getting things finished. They just request the phone ahead so that they can make sure that their will be someone to take care of your needs til they are fully finished with their facility. Believe me my eyes were bugging out over what they have already done. I am going to try to get away again to go up and take some nice pictures. Like they say one picture is worth a thousand words.
