a delayed hello from PA

aquaboy · 11-03-2007, 08:19 AM

well..... when i joined 3reef i never got to just say hi, because i rushed to find some help for a Chromis of mine..... But now id like to Hello!
I live in Tatamy,PA near allentown. I have a 55g soon to be reef.
Some Equipment:
Coralife 65g

What i belive to be an oddysea 260w PC fixture
(soon to be upgraded to 2x250 HQI's)

a HOT magnum canister (the one for 55G tanks)

an ocean runner 6500 for circ.

A weak via aqua pump for sumpo return
(yet again will be upgraded, to a little giant high head pump.

a 10gal quarintine

An unkown 200w heater

And i feel like im missing something...

Livestock:
Fish; Blue neon Goby, yellow tang, green Mandarin, 2 chromis that i have no idea what kind they are but maybe one of my favs, an ocellaris clown, a firefish, a pajama cardinal,and a Coral beauty.
Corals; hammer coral frag, a piece of florida ricordia,and a couple zoa frags

P.S i thank Matt for fixing 3reef, Yet again

Welcome to 3reef! Post some pics!!!

aquaboy · 11-03-2007, 08:43 AM

one thing i believe i forgot to mention is that im 14 and only make money by mowing lawns! i only make like $20 or $30 a week, so i am forced to take it slow with purchasing equipment and coral, but this hobby has the greatest payoff of all. i got into this hobby because every year i go for a week to the carribean and usually go snorkeling and just cant get enough of it. im going to Turks and Caicos this year, and they have a reef right off the beach that is full of colorful brain corals (ive been there before).

Welcome to 3reef..
I was about your age when I started with tropical/freshwater fish...I remember saving up just enough money to buy my first fish tank, a 20 gallon along with the filter and heater....That was a long time ago, LOL....

aquaboy · 11-03-2007, 08:52 AM

i started the whole aquarium hobby with a ten gallon freshwater, that only had some creek fish that i still have today, i belive i was like 9 when i started.
