Hello fellow reefers

My name is John. I live in Woodbridge NJ
I registered here yesterday

Started a pair of Reef tanks (cubes) in October.
Things are coming along nicely …especially for bare bottom tanks.

Joined here to check out local (relatively) reefers activities in the reefing world and perhaps learn about local gatherings and such.

Happy reefing

Oh...Quick comment before you buy fancy lens and such.
An easy trick to reduce the blue light is aiming your camera through the lens of the orange glasses you pick up at all the reefing events...

Welcome @Zacc. !! Aquascape looks nice !! My only advice is to lower the rocks on the left side of the tank, unless you plan on putting zoos or palys on there. Anything else might be coming out of the water. Let us know how we can help.
 
Hi my name is Mike. I have always been a NJ resident and grew up in East Greenwich township. I currently reside in Mickleton. I have a 75 gal tank with fish and corals. Looking for a place to ask questions and share info. Would like to be able to do swaps if needed.

Welcome to NJRC Mike!! We are here to help.
 
What's up Everyone! My names Jim. Born and raised in NJ. 33. I've had pets my entire life. About 4 years ago I moved to Grenada with my girlfriend while she was in med school. BOOOOOOOOOOOM! Going to the beach everyday really opened my eyes to the coral and fish world. Boy do I regret moving there! LMAO JK obviously! When I moved back to NJ, after doing A LOT of research and considering the space I had at the time, I got a 32 Biocube. It's awesome and has increased my love for the hobby.

In June I purchased my first home and finally have the space so I got a 180 gallon. Its a project I've been waiting for since I started in the hobby. Still waiting for the custom stand to come in. I plan on doing the plumbing and sump myself. I will share pictures once I get the stand and start making progress on the build.
Moving the biocube was rough and I lost all of my coral. Luckily it wasn't anything expensive. But at the same time we all know the time and effort it takes to see our reefs doing well. So still a bummer. Haven't gotten any new corals since the move but can't wait to see what I wind up putting in the new tank. Mushrooms have my heart right now but I really want to get into montis and across....eventually.

Happy to have found this group randomly today and looking forward to talking reef and fish with you all!
