  1. A reef grows in Brooklyn

    wow...scary moment. great looking tank btw.
  2. Reef meetings/Frag meets in the city?

    I could...but I feel like the whole point of swaps is to get a better deal than the stores....If It ends up taking the entire day, and costs me extra money to take the metro, it's really not worth it. plus...I'm lazy. hahahhaa :biggrin:
  3. Reef meetings/Frag meets in the city?

    Thanks Deanos. I'm sure they'll be a notice about that one, but I was hoping that there was a manhattan "chapter" as well. None of my friends are into reefing, so it's kind of hard to get them to give me a ride to meet strange new fish/reef crazed people..hahaha..not that you guys are...
  4. Reef meetings/Frag meets in the city?

    Hi guys. I'm fairly new to this forum, and also to living a pedestrians life :P . When I joined, it was in hopes of finding some inside information to LFS's in the city and to network with fellow reefers within manhattan. It's disappointing that there are only 3-4 to choose from, and they're...
  5. I need frags! Have some misc stuff to trade

    My tank is only 2 mo's old, so I'm afraid I don't have any cool frags for trade, but I do have the following that I don't use or don't want. -brand new Kent marine algae scraper still in packaging. http://www.marinedepot.com/ps_ViewItem~idProduct~KM2641.html -brand new 360 oscillator from...
  6. 20 gallons of RO/DI

    You might want to offer something in return, or fork out the cash for an RO/DI. You can fine them for 150-200. I don't think anyone in their right mind would hump 20g or ~160lbs of water to midtown manhattan from any of the outer boroughs (assuming no one living in the city has a car) for...
  7. New Reefer on the Block

    How in the world does a 15 y/o say "money is not an issue?" Or even think about a tank that big? What do you do for a living kid, and are they hiring? My 34g easily took over 2 grand just to get it cycling.
  8. Hi guys new guy here.

    Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. Those are great pics inline6! I lived and dove out of oahu. (which in my opinion has the least life) I wish I could attend the frag swap this weekend, but unfortunately I have some prior engagements to attend to. I'm considering the CADlights 25 or...
  9. Hi guys new guy here.

    Hahaha...yeah...I'm sure you're aware of their restrictions down there. My supply was Very limited, but I was able to get my hands on enough to make my tank look decent. I lived in Hawaii for 6+ years, and dove down there as well. The islands in general are suprisingly lacking in reef life.
  10. Hi guys new guy here.

    Hey guys, Just wanted to introduce my self and say hello. My name is Jacob, moved back to nyc 5 months ago after being away for 10 years. The last tank I had was in Hawaii, but I had to tear it down and sell it for the move back. I really wasn't planning on setting up another tank till I...
