Just wanted to say Hi.

Hi I'm Icereefer,
I'm a native of Calif stuck in grand forks ND, No it's not that bad...LOL. I've been reefing in this area now for about 16 years, At The moment I have a 75 gal mixed reef leaning more to the SPS side these days, I have been in the saltwater hobby since the early 80's when ugf was the talk in town,,,,,,,LOL I know old school...LOL.
well hope to see you around and hope we can help each other out on getting traffic to our forums.

Hi Icereefer. Thanks for stopping in. Hopefully, we'll get to meet in person some day. I'd like to join Home_Depot and head to the meeting there in a couple of weeks. Now, I've gotta check out your forum!

hello

I don't think that we're good at hello's though.

Hi! Welcome to our little forum, I'll have to check out the ND one again, been a while. You better post some pics of your setup, I bet you've bought and sold off a lot of equipment as times changed in this hobby.

Welcome to the forum. When is the meeting going to be? I think Vishnu was saying the weekend of the 29th??

I would love to come and I am sure there are a few that would want to also

Garrett

I'm not sure yet Garrett I need to talk to vishnu more and see where were going to hold it first. and what were going to do at the next meeting.
by the way love the new color of your skin on the forum.
Swanwillow, I think if memory serves me right we've met once years ago I think I bought your big crocea clam.
and everyone else thanks for the nice welcome.

OK sounds good and thanks for the comment on the site!!

could very well be, I did have one I recall selling when I was getting out of the hobby the last time I did such.

Sheesh, I want a couple clams again though

Derasa

blue maxima.

gold maxima.

my next clam will be a squamosa.

Are you getting another tank because your up grading or your having a problem with the one you have now?
I'm just wondering because you wouldn't want to go out and start getting clams in a non established tank right away?

it does look AWFUL familiar.

and the brat is 'upgrading' to an ENORMOUS HUMOUNGUS sized tank... okay, maybe not that big. big enough that I want one HALF the size.

yeah I looked back on some of my records and yeah it was you I got that clam from if it will help you remember this clam when I got it from you had this orangish type of macro growing on one small patch of it's shell.

no, the reason i need a new tank is i woke up to a crack threw the whole back sheet of glass in my 150. So yesterday i ran down to twin cities and got a 210 but i was dissapointed it has center overflows instead of corners so now i need to redue my sch. 80. All of my gear is in a holding tank"again" and it will be fine tell i can get some plumbing here from bulk reef.

oh my, it CRACKED?!?!?! wow

and yup, it sure was, I wonder what type of algae that was, I liked it
