New member in C'ville


Recommended Posts

Hi everybody.

I am new to this club, and although I only got a membership for myself atm, I will soon get one for my boyfriend who is into this wonderful hobby with me! Is there anyone else who lives near charlottesville? We are fairly new to this, and are trying to find fun, less-expensive, ways to build our 29g and two 14g nanos, like trading, or buying from other members. There is a lot of mention of "access"...access to what? Once my membership is processed,will I be able to access more areas of the site? And how will I find out more about the group going to the meeting in Pennsylvania next September? We would both like to go.

Thanks all!

Nat :wig:

Hi Nat and welcome to the club.

 

1) if your tank is up and cycled and your ready for coral then see pinned thread in general discussion area for trades/sales of corals at the meeting Sunday.

 

2) Info. Lots of thereads here on all sections of the forums on how to do things. Click on search button to also look for info.

 

3) Access (I took care of your permissions - you should see member section now)

 

4) Trip to Pittsburgh. That is the annual 3 day conference. WAMAS hosted the event back in 2005. Really can be a lot of fun [though hosting was a lot of work] you can get more detail on what goes on by reading this reef central member article: "Why should you attend: See this article by melev: http://www.melevsreef.com/why_macna.html "

 

 

- small discussion of some folks going here may look into pricing a bus if there is enough interest in it.

No! LOL. Shane is my doting boyfriend who is very into this fantastic (albeit expensive!) hobby with me! :) But he works nights so is sleeping when I have been posting (and purchasing :)) for us!
