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!
Where you located?

My name is Suman and I have been in NJ for over 10 years. I have been into fish since I really can remember. I started with freshwater as I’m sure most of the people, very much facilitated on Discus fish and had then like forever. I now don’t own any freshwater fish because I realized saltwater is more fascinating then fresh water.

I have multiple saltwater tank with total water volume 360 gallon. I am grad to be in this team.

Thank you

Hi Everyone, my name is Dan. I actually do not live in NJ but westchester, I work in Rutherford NJ however and spend an inordinate amount of time at absolutely fish!

I have a 170g 6’ tank that is a mixed reef/ SPS dominate. I have been reefing on and off since I was a teenager so at least 20-25 years.

I am looking forward to meeting more of you and hopefully trading some corals with you all!

Hello everyone,

My name is Jason, and I’m excited to introduce myself to the New Jersey Reefing Club community.

I currently run a few personal reef systems, with my favorite being a fully SPS-dominant Red Sea Reefer 525. My main focus is maintaining stable parameters and growing healthy Acropora and other SPS corals.

In addition to my personal tanks, I also operate a licensed aquatics business in New Jersey called 732 Aquatics, based in Ocean County. Our facility runs two commercial fish rack systems along with a 300-gallon frag system, and we import new livestock weekly. Our goal is to provide healthy, carefully selected saltwater fish and high-quality corals to fellow hobbyists.

Im focused on serving the local reefing community by helping hobbyists source their dream fish and corals while building strong relationships within the New Jersey reefing scene.

I’m currently operating by appointment only and am located at 103 E Street, Brick, NJ. If you have any questions or are looking for something specific, feel free to reach out anytime at 732-692-0063.

Looking forward to connecting with everyone, sharing knowledge, and seeing the incredible systems you all maintain.
