I'm setting up a ten gallon tank as a quarantine tank while I get my 80 gallon DT set up. So far so good. It's currently cycling. Last reading, 3/9, was ammonia of 0 and nitrites of 2. Waiting on nitrites to drop before I test for nitrates.
Equipment:

They closed down while I was in college there. Sad times. I used to go there with the guys for 50 cent wings. Lots of the older bars in Hoboken are shutting down.
Does coast guard academy and naval academy even play each other?
Sure thing! Did you have any place in mind? I was going to go with NJ sailing school as I’ve sailed with their boys before but I don’t think they offer a 101 group bundle.
Anyone here sail? I had my roommate teach me some basics last summer and will probably also take the ASA 101 class this year. Trying to find someone who goes out often to take me under their wing and teach me. Willing to bring some beers (if of age) and hands to help with repairs.
Didn't mean...
Also, ATGAT(look it up). I have friends who have lost so much skin from not wearing gear. Please, just please wear a helmet at the very least even if you're only going at low speeds. Ideally one that is snell rated. Riding is already dangerous enough.
On the off topic- any sailors on this...
I would highly recommend doing a basic riders course. They teach you how to properly execute most maneuvers you'll need to make and you won't have to worry much about damaging the bike when you drop it. Take your time to look for one as some community colleges offer them for cheap. It was ~$280...
@Foxchase I believe this post belongs in the Open Waters form. I used to ride. What kind of advice you looking for? Can't offer any mentorship as I sold both my bikes 2 years ago to afford an engagement ring for the fiancée. Advise is available though.
I'm looking to buy some rock for my upcoming 80 gallon build. Will this still be around this weekend? Would I be able to scrounge through at a reasonable distance from people (fiancee's concerned about social distancing because we have to see her parents soon)?
@paintman27 Yep! Thats the one! If it comes down to me having to buy new from a vendor, I'm okay with that. Thought I'd check the club to see if anyone had a used or unboxed one first. The cost of one of these pumps right now is around $270. I could buy a new bubble magus PS that would fit my...
Hey everyone! I got a Reef Octopus xp2000sss with the tank that I bought. The skimmer pump is broken though (the magnet swelled). Looking to buy a replacement...Or advice on MacGyvering an internal skimmer pump.
