Hello everyone! Well at the behest of many of my reefer friends I have finally joined WAMAS! I'm glad to be here and look forward to going to the meeting in April and becoming an active member of this organization!

 

I'm from Chattanooga, TN originally but grew up as a military brat so I've been from Alaska to Georgia and many places between, before landing in VA. My wife, son and I live in Sumerduck, VA (for those of you who don't know that is south of Warrenton and north of Fredericksburg off route 17).

 

Right now I have a 72g Bow front mixed reef with a 210g upgrade coming in the next few months.

Hello,

My family and I have just moved to Winchester, Va. from El Paso, Tx. I know a few of you already and look forward to meeting many more members soon.

 

I have about 25+ yrs in this hobby but never stop learning. I am the former president of the El Paso Marine Aquarium Society where we did some good work assisting the local zoo and educated the majority of hobbyists in that area to frag/purchase frags and or aquacultured livestock. You'll also see me on Reef Central under the same username; I moderate in forums, "Nano", "ReefClubs", "New to the Hobby", "Reef Fishes" and "Fish Only".

 

I'm currently setting up a 12gal Aquapod with a 70watt DE. It has water and sand and hopefully the rock by this weekend (March 1st). I also have a RR 180 and a 58 sitting dry in the basement. I'm not sure if I'll keep the 180 but am fairly anxious to set up the 58 dedicated to a pair of clowns and host. Unfortunately that will have to wait until the basement is finished.

 

See you guys at the next meeting...

Cheers all... I am a noobie in Waldorf, MD

 

Took over a 55 gallon mostly-fish tank from a colleague at work who wanted to unload it.

Would like to gradually change over to a reef tank with more inverts.\

 

My setup is still very basic and I am still going through the beginnings of the learning process, but so far I've had the system and 4 months and nothing has died on me including a few new members of the family; notable a carpet anemone that I've had for about 3 months and who seems to be doing quite well.

 

Wont ramble on here...

Excited about the new hobbie (job!) and the wonderful community that seems to come along with it.

Shoot me a 'hey' if you are in the Southern MD area or wherever.

I followed a link from reefcentral. I live in PWC, VA..not far from Potomac Mills.

I have a 72gl bowfront with some softies and only 3 fish. It's been running over 5 years...not a lot in it but what i have looks pretty lol!

I also have a 6g Nano in my daughter's room with a frags from the 72 and a false percula clown.

I am interested in buying local frags, zoos and rics with yellows reds blues.

Thanks!!
