Hi.. I bought a tank...and then I spent real money ;)

Hi Gang...

 

I am Blake... Some of you may have seen me hanging about down at Quantum Reefs with Steve and Vince... I don't work there, but I play like I do on TV.  I originally bought a 36 Gal Bow Tank.. something nice for my "H o o kah Lounge" (No drugs) in my basement. It is pretty well set up now thanks to Steve and Vince... So Far things are going pretty well...

 

I forgot to mention something though.. I bought one of the Apex Control systems... yeah.. it is pretty bad ass I just finished setting it up.

 

I am sleepy, and it is late and I have to drive to Harrisburg in the Morning.  You'll see me at QR quite a bit, say hi..or if you are into Shisha (Hoo kah) and cocktails (Rum and Coke, Baileys on the rocks, etc) and want to get together..let me know.  Also, if you would like to see the Apex system working, or have any questions.. it is pretty straight forward, and I'll be glad to help.

 

OK, I am gonna sleep now.

 

LOL

Hi Blake. Welcome to WAMAS. I really like the title you put on this. Yes, the price of the tank is just the start (and often a fairly minor part at that).

I'll pick it up and deliver it to gmerek2 on my way to the QR social, OK?

I have a feeling I would get an empty bottle and an intoxicated moderator to deal with. Oh well payback is a stinker. What fire dept you work for? I'm paid in Montgomery county.

Hi welcome.

[Newms118]

Couldn't agree more with the title to this thread, the tank was my first buy and the list of equipment keeps growing. Talk about a money pit lol. Nice meeting you.

Thanks all for the nice and kind words..at the Moment I have been helping Steve and Vince out preparing for their event tomorrow (today) So, I have not had much time to fool with photos..  But, know this.. I am a FOWLR kind of guy.

 

I have a three Chromis, and some way too expensive clown fish (Although I really do like them)...a lobster that I thought had died, but turned out he poked his head out from under the rock tonight.. so, I guess he molted... I did have an emerald Crab.. he either molted or is dead, cause he went down the drain the other night... I have one of those red spotted shrimp..he is cantankerous, but fun to watch.  Also, and anemone that lives in a clam shell, and the clowns are slowly warming up to.  Vortex MP-10, APEX LITE, a sump made of buckets (and it actually works pretty well) a pretty cheap protein skimmer, and some really nice 36" LED light that Steve and Vince sold me when I first got started.  As you all know, the stuff is expensive, but worth it...and I like my setup thus far.  I took a photo of the tank.. it is on my Iphone...  yeah... It is on my facebook page now too... but, nope.. not simple enough for me to cut and past here.. so, maybe next time.  Wahh Wahh..
