Ot crew

Is anyone left here?

I was around in the old OT days, I have seen many on here since 2012.

 

[LatinoHeatCHI]

Lol I forgot many got the boot. I haven't been on here in a while & thought I drop by. I've been getting the itch to start up again.

Scratch, scratch, scratch!!

Also getting the itch...

This forum used to be so active, where did everyone go?

 

[LatinoHeatCHI]

what's up guys! Yes, I'm getting the itch again! Looking for a nano to start out with.

I think I am going to pickup a IM 20 gallon from a local member. Too bad I need a crap ton of other equipment. RO/DI, controller, top off, lighting, pumps...

 

[LatinoHeatCHI]

I have extra stuff. Lmk what you need. I may have it.

 

[LatinoHeatCHI]

I remember this room was popping.... what happened?

Thanks! I actually picked up the IM 20gal with stand for a good price. Got it all cleaned up. Bought all the other stuff. Marine Depot had a killer deal on a ReefKeeper Lite with PC4, SL1 (PH probe included) for like $180. Got an RO/DI, AquaMaxx dry rock, live sand, Coral Box ATO, Coral Box RN-1, Photon V2 16, and a few more misc items. Debating if I want to make an Aquaclear HOB Fuge or not. I usually always run a fuge so I will probably add one during the cycle...

My dad and I setup a 150g a few years back that is still going at his house. I plan to take some water and a small piece of live rock to help seed the new tank. I'm excited to start this tank, its been probably four years since I had a tank of my own. Seems like everything changed since I was doing this. Tons of new equipment and new methods. I am shooting for a rather simple setup, zoanthids, mushrooms, GSP, Xenia, softies that move with the flow. Maybe a small acan garden. Going to set the tank up, let it do its thing for about a month or so then start to stock it.

 

[LatinoHeatCHI]

Whoa! You went all out! That's pretty sweet. It's been the same for me as well, bout 4yrs out the game.

The board is still good. But not this forum. Many old-timers left the hobby and many juveniles banned; the latter created their own playpen which has since dried up. Many on a FB group that's pretty lame.

 

[LatinoHeatCHI]

LOL Thanks for the update. I don't have fb. As my kids say fb is for old people. ��

There's probably an ointment for that.

There's probably an ointment for that.

I like scratching it.

 

[ostrow]

Any of you guys need sps hit me up. Mine are all growing over each other and so I frag regularly.

Note: I am an old-time without a basement store. There are probably red bugs. They are harmless as evidenced by color and growth. But if this sort of thing words you put then get a bottle of coral dip (which if it weird you out you will need anyway!)

 

[LatinoHeatCHI]

If I thought my tank was ready I totally would run over there. Thanks for the offer.

Yeah, was definitely good times back in the day. I pop in every now and again and it feels like a used car dealership in here now with all the FS posts.

Definitely made some good friends on here!
