Romewhip Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Hello- I'm new here, don't usually post much, and don't have any pics of my nano-cube. I joined because I'm in the south sound area, and might actually get to meet some folks. I have my first SW tank, have had freshies (and still have one) for many years, but am still learning. I did a sterile start to the tank, after following recommendations from another source, and took my time. I think it ran three months before any livestock went in. So far only a CUC of hermits and snails and a couple of damsels (they're staying, I like the little devils). Hoping to add some softies soon, have some macroalgae on the way. Everything has been very stable so far- Quote

mrgreenthumb Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 welcome noob!! Sounds like you are off to a good start.....reef tanks are like race cars, the faster you go the harder they crash Quote

dsoz Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Welcome. We don't get a lot of action from up north. Most of our folk are Vancouver to Medford. I hope that you can come down to a couple of meetings. I would love to trade with you if you ever come down to Portland. dsoz Quote

pledosophy Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 That is an awesome quote. I think for this particular noob the old addage, "Rome was not built in a day", might be more fitting. Welcome to the site. Quote
mltnguyen Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Welcome... post some pics when you get them. People in these parts live off of pics. Quote
Romewhip Posted February 4, 2009 Author Posted February 4, 2009 Thanks for the welcome! I do occasionally stray down below- I have family in the Eugene OR area and often get to Vancouver. I hope to have something to trade later in the year, for now I'm just slowly building up to adding the softies. My tanks are unfortunately not my primary hobby, my dogs are, but I've enjoyed learning the SW details and I can sit for ridiculously long periods of time and watch the fish and hermits. The quote about Rome not being built in a day is too funny- Rome is the name for my dogs and it's been over 20 years now that I've been known for them. That's one long day. Quote
salty419 Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 WELCOME. Tank looks good it's pretty full Quote
