Reef buddy

[menglish]

I am looking for a reef buddy.

I realized that as I put more and more $ into my tank, I should not depend so much on the neighborhood kids to look over my tank when I am out of town.

So, I am looking for an experinece reefer in the Wheaton area of Silver Spring to be my "reef buddy" and look in on my tank when I am out of town. I have a 90G mix reef tank with about 12 fish (see attached).  I do have an apex controller and power backup options should I loose power but would love to have an experience person who would know what to do should something bad happen.  Clearly I would be willing to do the same for someone, if needed.

By the way, your tank is awesome looking.

Thanks Josh,

I am just loving looking at this tank and do spend lots of time weekly doing maintenance and testing. This is why I would like to make sure that I do all i can to make sure it continues to do well

I may be able to help in a pinch to replace a pump or refill an ATO.

You should update your profile to show what city you live in. That might help to find someone that lives nearby.

Hi guys,

Thank you all for responding to my request for a "reef buddy".

Since the guys at ERC are in the area, I will go with them.

I can't take credit for this idea, but i think it is something everyone with a tank should have as many of us have lots of money invested in out tank, plus, we need to provide the best possible care for the animals. we owe them that.
