Thought I'd Pop In And Say Hello...

New guy here...

I've checked out this forum a few times in the past, but never really registered because I wasn't active in the 'tank community' at the time, but through some carefully placed subliminal messages, and some sales closing ability (ie HONEY I WANT ANOTHER TANK - HONEY I WANT ANOTHER TANK WAHHHHH :'( ) I've been able to convince bug the spousal unit to get back into it :)

I had a 55 gallon and Eclipse 12, both Reef, when I lived in Charleston, and sold it when I moved back up to Jersey and we're finally getting 'situated' so I obtained a 'project tank' from a friend who's house burned down and I was going to re-do his tank so I figured I'd go ahead and register...

We're also looking at getting a 'real' tank soon also... but I gotta blow the cobwebs off. I got my first fresh water tank ::) in 95 I think it was, and I did my first attempt at Salt water in like 96ish...and have never done fresh water again. I even built a 250 into a closet in the living room of one of my homes (disaster struck 6 months later when the seals blew - UGH) but I replaced it and all was good...

So anyway... I'm done rambling, and going back to lurking :)

Thought I'd introduce myself as y'all seem like a good bunch of people

Seams bursting on a tank?? You'll fit right in over here... You'll have to join the esteemed "flood club"!

Welcome!
 
I'm in West Deptford (South Jersey near Cherry Hill/Voorhees/Deptford).

Thanks for the warm welcome :)

Yeah, when the 250 went, I woke up to my wife screaming about the 'tank' and I looked out the window, half awake, looking for a military tank. I walked out in the kitchen and stepped in water.. UGH!

There was still about 4 inches left, so I was able to save my fish and my shark egg (WHEW) and only lost 1 out of 5 fish from that...

Are the folks around here more from North NJ, South NJ or mixed around?

There was a LFS over on Blackwood Clementon Road. Anyone know the name to it? Down by 55 entrance if I remember it right...
