Anyone in the Sewickley / Robinson Area?

[livfortoday]

Hello all,

Although I registered with RC more than a year ago, I have only recently been following some of these threads.

Just checking to see if there are any Sewickley / Robinson / Mckees Rocks / Ben Avon people on here.

Im looking to buy / trade corals for my tank. I currently do not have much in the way of trades other than a few mushrooms and the ever growing crop of xenia, (which seems as though some people cant give it away!)

I do have a couple tanks for trade (believe a 45 and a 35) a 192W PC light.

thanks for looking

Tell us a little about your tank, lighting and size. I may be able to give you some other stuff besides the frogspan.

I have 75 gallon with 20 gallon sump. 1 250W MH and 192W PC. Tank has about 120lbs of live rock which is full of coraline. I do have a few odd ball things such as mushrooms, a few heads of candy cane, pink tip anenome, your basic starter fish a couple clowns, bi-color angel, pinstripe wrasse, serpent star, brittle star, and a pretty fair clean up crew.

I am actually in the process right now of bulding a canopy and refacing the stand, seems like it will turn out pretty good...will post pics at some point.

Every thing seems pretty stable now, and I am getting the bug to add corals and perhaps a few more impressive fish!

As you can see, I do not have a lot of coral experience so just looking to get my feet wet.

Any pointers would be great.

thanks

Do you mesure cal, alk and mag???

Tank has been up and running for 1.5 years....I say stable now as I lost a few fish 6 months to a year ago. I bought through Saltwaterfish.com only a handful of them have made it through, others disapper.

Anyone have opinions on buying fish online?

I have not added anything during that time and am getting bored with the current set up.

Shame on me but I have not. other than the fish, (which i attribute to shipping) everything has been doing very well. I am going to look into more testing

You'd think your parents would've picked something a little more original...seems like everyone has that middle name
