aggarza September 12, 2014 September 12, 2014 Hi all! Moved to Salisbury, Md. about 2 years ago and sold off my semi-custom Finnex tank back in Texas. Have been lurking on the site, and reefcentral and can't help but it, but I wanna get back in the life!
wildcrazyjoker81 September 12, 2014 September 12, 2014 First off welcome and second we have a phenominal WTB/SALE/TRADE forum here. Just become a paid member and post a WTB ad. I promise it will be the best 20 dollars you have spent in years on this hobby.
JR-Tanked150 September 12, 2014 September 12, 2014 Welcome, you should become a member. As a member you have access to the for sale and want to buy section. It will be the best $20 you will spend getting back into the hobby.
aggarza September 12, 2014 Author September 12, 2014 I was wondering where that section went. I actually joined this forum in 2009, and I thought i remembered a marketplace section...I will definitely do that.
wildcrazyjoker81 September 12, 2014 September 12, 2014 I have seen some cube/nano tanks up for sale in the past month too
YHSublime September 12, 2014 September 12, 2014 I would also urge you to join us, it will be well worth the money! Sent you a PM as well.
RW09903 September 12, 2014 September 12, 2014 I used to live in Salisbury when I went to school there. Welcome back to the hobby. I think that Pacific East Aquaculture will become your best friend!
JR-Tanked150 September 12, 2014 September 12, 2014 You should check out Pacific East tomorrow, they are doing a social, a tour of their facility and stuff.
aggarza September 12, 2014 Author September 12, 2014 yeah i will be there. i live 10 minutes from the place. lol. been there numerous times since i moved here. whenever i need my reef fix...
aggarza May 28, 2015 Author May 28, 2015 ok update time. i got a biocube 14 setup with ecoxotic leds and let the tank run, i have learned through many, many trials and uh oh moments to take it slow. i let the tank age and began buying frags from my local store, pac east aquaculture, things were progressing nicely. i got an opportunity to move back to nova and bam now i am back in f'burg. bad news is that today my tank sprung a leak. good news, gives me time to try a new build. i will be resealing tonite and rescaping this weekend. i am also planning on adding more leds. i have 2 12k panorama modules and a blue/magenta stunner. the color is crisp white. its nice, but i want more blue to make the coral pop. so i think i will be adding 2 445nm stunners and switching the combo stunner for a 403nm uv strip. the sad tank...
Jason Rhoads May 29, 2015 May 29, 2015 Sorry to hear about the leak, but you know this also means you could go bigger. . . nothing makes an aquarium look better than more corals and fish
aggarza May 29, 2015 Author May 29, 2015 haha. i do want to go bigger. i think a 50 breeder would be great. but not in the cards for me at this point. i already resealed the biocube last nite. i used black silicone from aqueon. so i could possibly refill tonite, but i'm gonna wait. i will water test tomorrow afternoon and leave it for 24 hours. i am also putting together an epoxied sandbed. they call it a false/fake sandbed, but i don't know why-its real sand...i dunno. but yeah, its gonna be awesome. also gonna use a single totoka branch for my main lr formation with a small clam island.
aggarza May 29, 2015 Author May 29, 2015 here is a look at the clam island. it is roughly the diameter of a baseball with a central ridge and and a depression on each side. i plan to attach two maximas. i took a ton of pics but none really show the shape of the lr. too much light i think. i will try and take some more shots later.
aggarza May 29, 2015 Author May 29, 2015 (edited) ok those were no good. i think these are better...each side can hold a 3" maxima Edited May 29, 2015 by aggarza
aggarza June 1, 2015 Author June 1, 2015 ok so update time... i have the tank resealed, no leaks, the sandbed epoxied, and the new rockscape. tell me what you guys think... also, i am in need of some dirty rock to reseed my tank. if anyone near stafford/f'burg has a bit of rubble that i can have, that would be great.
aggarza June 12, 2015 Author June 12, 2015 hey guys, i am still looking for some rubble or chaeto ball to help seed the microfauna in my tank. is there anyone in the stafford or f'burg area that can help out.
Mattiejay6 June 16, 2015 June 16, 2015 Hey Aggarza! Welcome back to the club! I am down in Fredericksburg Spotsy! There aren't a lot of reefers down our way. I don't run chaeto at all unfortunately. I have mangroves and and algae turf scrubber. If you hit up Roni he might have some rubble to spare before he does his tank overhaul.
08can-am June 16, 2015 June 16, 2015 I am just outside fredericksburg and am sure i can provide rubble. Im in bowling green Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk
Jason Rhoads June 18, 2015 June 18, 2015 This is going to be a sweet tank! If you ever make it near woodbridge I can hook you up with either rubble or algae. Let me know.
aggarza June 19, 2015 Author June 19, 2015 awesome, thanks for the offers. sorry it took awhile to respond, been a bit busy. I am just outside fredericksburg and am sure i can provide rubble. Im in bowling greenSent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk sounds great. lemme know when you are available and i can drive out. i am free just about any afternoon. This is going to be a sweet tank! If you ever make it near woodbridge I can hook you up with either rubble or algae.
