dmward99 July 21, 2005 Share July 21, 2005 Hello to everyone on this site .I am pretty new to reefs and all and I need a little help.I am setting up my tank( 125 show and 55 sump/refugium) and was wondering if I could get a cup of some live sand from a few different tanks to help seed my rocks and sand and get it cycling along.I would prefer peeps in D.C. or within a 10-15 minute drive of D.C. so that I could pick up or meet.I really want some from a few different so that I could get a variety of life.Thanks.I can be reached by email or phone at 202-645-7167.I am David ,email is dmward99@yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grav July 22, 2005 Share July 22, 2005 Always willing to help. Sand and/or Macro for the fuge. I'm in fairfax tho, bit of a haul near Rt 66, 7100 (fairfax county parkway) and rt 29. You should come this way, it is where all the cool tanks are. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocko918 July 22, 2005 Share July 22, 2005 Can I pay you guys for shipping to 20019?How much? 35229[/snapback] I know there are people closer who will hook you up. It's not the money but the hassle to ship it. Hopefuly someone in dc will help you out. But if you are ever out this way, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmward99 July 22, 2005 Author Share July 22, 2005 Cool, is there anyone else a little closer or in DC that can help me out with a little sand or good algae to get my sump started?I don't want to ask a fish store for fear of introducing some disease into my tank and then having to treat it.

Lee Stearns July 27, 2005 Share July 27, 2005 I am within 10 minutes of both Grav and Bob and am willing to help- If you are goiing by the Reef Tank then we are all in that vicinity- That would give you a trip to a pretty good coral store that gives decent advice- and a couple of us could probably drop by with different sand or macro algea to get your fuge started. I am sure any one of us would be happy to detour by our house to show you our setups- Hey Bob shake the pods out of the carpet and I will be by to pick up the little guys for feeding. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
