albertareef Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Hi all, One of our members is clearing out for a move and contacted us about donating some items - probably mostly supplements etc. - so I was wondering if anyone knew if any of our TFT tanks was still up and running anywhere. Obviously we could hold onto them until a later time but some items might be time sensitive. I will have a list later this week but just wanted to get the conversation going. Thanks! @Higher Thinking @Emerald525 @Gil&Fin @SuncrestReef @CuttleFishandCoral @Gumby @Flashy Fins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higher Thinking Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I think with so many schools shut down, unfortunately we've lost a couple systems. That being said, I feel like most of these "donation events" typically involve offloading a bunch of unusable items. At least that is what history has shown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I agree with Andrew. In the past I got lots of used items and supplements that weren’t going to be used. It was fine when Roger was a teacher at the school and an active forum member of who could fix things but my experience is the teachers don’t know much about the equipment and you want new products where you know the history. Several tanks have crashed when a pump or something failed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gumby Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Boys and Girls club tank shutdown. Kim and Sirena were nice enough to store it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reefrun Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 While schools are closed can we do something where we instead help reefers in need? Like those on hard times or newbies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reefrun Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Just things like this- supplements, beginner frags, etc that typically would have been donated to schools. For example I have a birdsnest frag and some cheato I can “donate” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
