chimera Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 would be interesting to know how many serious reefers are out there now. reef has made guesstimates, however there would be many who keep quiet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Yeah the importers would be in the know. Hope it isn't just us buying all the fish :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDM Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 im fairly sure there would be a heap more people with reef tanks that dont use this forum, it took me 2 years before i used this forum. i also know of 6 tanks in hamilton that the owners are not even regestered on here.

PENEJANE Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Well I can say that I am new but I don't have a reef as such (not the size you guys own anyway) but I am very pleased with my 7g nano and can't wait to get some other things in there. :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tee-em Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Thanks Wasp, thats what I need right now, Drilling holes in tanks, stripping cabinets, putting holes through walls... Buying expensive skimmers, omg the lights as well ... damn then a stream or two. Without some local support it just wont work. So thanks for all the good advice... all of you sounds mushy but true. Chrs pics in a month or so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KP Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 All dirty and algae infested at the moment, hopefully will clean itself up in the next few months as it matures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feelers Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 I just got my tank drilled and the overflow sorted, but I dunno what I'm gonna do next year so am unsure whether I want to set it up hmmm. My live rock has been sitting in the ocean since November last year haha!! So it should be pretty damn live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockerpeller Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 i'm looking at starting up a reef tank soon... just aquiring all the necessaties at the mo. i just got a 3ft tank with an overflow, and another 3 ft tank i want to modify into a sump. just waiting on my friend to tell me how much she can get some MH lights for, then i'll look at skimmers.

Seth Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Hey Feelers are you still going to go the octopus cold water marine way? your rock should have al sorts of goodies in it make sure you post what your up too as i want to do something similer in the future.

Feelers Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Yep thats still the plan, man has it been a long time in the making! I have everything I need, I really want to see how my DIY rock went as well, only problem is I have to see if I remember where I put everything... I got an awesome deal on a chiller, so my setup should be pretty sweet given the cost. I think I'll have to sell everything up though as I'll probably move somewehere else next year, but I could still just set things up for the hell of it!
