Welcome. You need 50 posts I believe to see the classifieds however people also list sales in the Reef Club Forums which you should be able to visit.

Ah, well, I suppose I’ll just get started being active and get that post count up!

I think I’m Back again. I was very deep into the hobby, starting with freshwater tanks and moving up to a small FOWLR tank, when my toddler tried to help daddy by feeding my fish while I was away on business. My wife didn’t notice until the water was cloudy. I tore down the 30g tank swearing that I would get a bigger one before I went through the setup again.

Well, that toddler just got her license and I’ve got no more excuses. Currently planning to buy a Red Sea Reefer and start up a what will eventually be a reef tank. Looking forward to searching here and bugging you guys with questions!

Read up on Red Sea tanks & their problems before pulling the trigger.
Then decide.

Welcome back! I have to agree with the above. While they are likely not the “norm” it seems there are regular problems with them. I have very limited experiences with the set ups but have heard good things about Cade, Waterbox and Innovative Marine.

Hello, jim here. Newbie to the forum. Been in the hobby a long time, saltwater for over 20 years. Recently moved my 18 year old 175 gallon Oceanic bow front reef tank. Need to restock with corals but still have 200 pounds of live rock in the display and a dozen fish.

Greetings all! “New” after an almost 15 year hiatus. In the Raleigh, NC area and looking to get back into the hobby and essentially relearn eveything. I’m back from the days when MH and EuroReef skimmers were top of the line. Thank you for having me, though it appears I can’t see any of the Used Equipment sales posts.

My MH fixtures are under the bed and my EuroReef skimmer is still going strong!

Hi Everyone - I'm Fred from Westchester county in NY, and just figuring out how to post in the right forum. Looking to build an open top show tank on a 7' x 19" natural stone countertop with room for a sump underneath.
I got a rimless tank 40"x17.7x17.7 for this space, but am now thinking I should figure out how to get / build something more like 6'x19"x(20 or 24height) instead. Any ideas on a source for the longer rimless tank that will fit on the 19" surface would be terrific

I was in Westchester once. Got completely hammered at the Marriot and somehow didn't get kicked out. Ah to be 20 again. Anyways, welcome!

Hello Everyone! My Name is Kevin. I am just getting back into the hobby after 20+ years and just wanted to say "Hi" and warn you that lots of questions are probably forthcoming as I get back up to speed. I apologize in advance! The improvements in technology while I was away are just crazy! Very excited with the changes. For reference, I am going to be setting up a 72" x 18" x 25" (140 gal) mixed reef. I just setup my RODI/mixing station today, so hope to clean and start cycling the 50 lbs of live (now dead) rock that I saved from my setup back then, soon. See you in the forums!
Kevin
