jfry Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Hello all, I am new to the PNWMAS community but not so new to aquarium keeping. Most of my experience has been with freshwater setups although I have had various degrees of reef aquaria in the past. I am presently on the west side in Hillsboro and have been maintaining a large reef tank and jelly kreisel at LeChon (on the waterfront) the past few months. I am a native Oregonian and came out of the AQS program in Newport back in 2012. This past December I finished up my undergraduate in Aquaculture. This year I have been looking at job opportunities in public aquaria/ornamental aquaculture, but think I will call the Portland metro home for now. With that, I am looking to expand my circle of aquatic enthusiast friends in the area, and thought PNWMAS would be be the best place to start. Many thanks, and I look forward to getting to know many of you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gil&Fin Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Welcome! Sounds like you're bringing a lot of knowledge and experience to the forum. I think you'll find a lot of like-minded people here. Think about coming to the annual BBQ at Emerald425's house Sunday the 21st--food, fish, and fun. Doesn't get much better than that. Here's the link to the thread: http://www.pnwmas.org/index.php?/topic/38395-August-Meeting-Summer-Barbecue-Potluck-Raffle-and-Frag-swap!
