    07035-Lincoln Park- Moving+Leaving Hobby

    Hi all, I've got a tank to breakdown. I've already posted some items on a fb group so if an admin would let me know if I can link that here for a bit more exposure that would be great. For now I'm going to just post a couple things but everything will be going for sale at some point. I'm just...

    How to price fish and corals?

    Hi everyone, Unfortunately we will be moving with tentative plans on this spring/summer and it's just not feasible for me to move my tank and livestock so I will be selling it all off before we move. That said I've never been very much into the online trade of the hobby so I don't really know...

    Moving timeline- how far in advance should I sell and what should I sell?

    Hi everyone, We'll be moving in about a year give or take and I'm wondering if anyone has sold off their whole system how long it took to actually go through with that. Should I be getting a 40 breeder from petco now as my temporary-permeant tank for the things that I want to keep or at the very...

    Does your LFS have Halloween hermit crabs or other big hermits?

    Hi everyone, As the title states does your LFS have Halloween hermit crabs or other big hermits? I really like hermit crabs, the big ones in particular since I never see any of my small blue leg sized ones. I have one halloween hermit crab that I got locally, and now that I've figured out that...

    WTB conch shells 07035

    Hi everyone, I have a Halloween Hermit crab who will only live in the narrow slit conch shells. He's in a fairly large conch shell now but he's starting to look for more shells. I do not have any other conch shells for him and he certainly is growing like crazy. I want to have a nice variety...

    Margarita snail for anyone with cold water tank 07035

    Hi everyone, When I started out I bought what I was told was a turbo snail from a LFS. I was just doing more research on CUCs and have discovered that what I have is a margarita snail. I've read they won't survive long in warm tanks and would love the poor thing to be able to not cook to death.

    Where do you get your frags?

    Hi everyone, As the title states, where do you get your frags? LFS, trades, online? Most of what I see online are colonies which aren't even near my price range. I don't mind getting things that are rather small, I'd even prefer it if it means that it costs less but my LFS tends to keep the same...

    Some personal suggestions on QT needed

    Hi everyone, I posted a similar thread on R2R so I'm sorry if you're seeing it again, but this is a much more close community and I can already predict the answers I'm going to get there since there's a lot more 'robots' who just sit out the same information no matter what. So over the...

    Injured or ill clownfish help

    I posted on R2R as well so I apologize if any of you are seeing this twice, I'm just very concerned as a new fish parent. Today I started to observe my fish in QT properly, I never bothered much before because they came from a system with low dose copper and I figured that it would take a while...

    Nano to 75 gallon

    Back in May I started a 29 gallon tank. Well I started a 10 gallon, then a 29 gallon. And I thought I was good with that, I got the fish who are in QT, tank all cycled, a lovely CUC, some corals and it was all great. Only my plumbing has been one gurgle after the next, my light which isn’t even...

    Where to buy big tanks?

    Hi everyone, I'm playing around with the idea of a bigger tank, like a 4-6 foot long one, preferably 6 because I would ideally like a yellow tang. So I'm trying to look around online, but I can't seem to find where on earth they're sold? Petco doesn't seem to have anything on their website...

    Used Equipment Values and Equipment ID

    Hi everyone, So I made a very bad impulse buy tonight getting a used 54 gallon corner setup. The pictures looked good and I measured it all out to go in a specific spot in the room. Measurements all checked out. When I got there the tank just seemed so so much smaller than I had imagined it. It...

    First Tank 29gal with display sump

    Copying from my thread on R2R. Posted June 7th 2018. This is my first tank build. It started because I was wandering petco and saw some cool inverts that I wanted, so I thought 'maybe I'll look into a small SW tank, maybe 10 gallons to go on the table in my room'. I started my research online...

    RAP- what to expect

    Now that the first day of RAP is done and some of you have gone, what can I expect? I'm fairly new to the hobby and don't have much of anything in terms of livestock yet, just a CUC in a 29 gal with 20high sump. It's all cycled and ready to go though. I want to put corals in there, I've heard...

    29 gallon stocking help

    Hi everyone, I have a 29 gallon (12x30x18h) with a 20 high sump that I'll get to start stocking after a 76 day wait for my rock and CUC to ensure it's pest free. The refugium area is 10" x 12" x 8" high with the baffle but the height might be increasing once I get my plumbing issues worked...

    Help Identify NJ Native Inverts

    Hi everyone, My dad decided to 'help out' my tank and brought home a bunch of inverts in a cooler from Atlantic Highlands 07716. I put everything in a 10 gal to cycle it for now while I get my 29 gal set up. He brought home probably half a dozen 'grass shrimp', a clam (3 inches), about a dozen...

    Hi everyone I started collecting materials for my first ever tank, I'm planning a mixed reef. I'm forced to keep it relatively small compared to what I want due to space issues. So far I have... 29 gal DT (30 x 12 x 18) with VIPARSPECTRA 165W LED 200 watt heater 1- 10 gal (20 x 10 x 12) that...
