I've been somewhat out of commission when it comes to reef keeping for the past year.
The Mrs. and I moved from our condo into a house at the beginning of July last year. The move went very very poorly for my reef tank :( :( Within a month I had lost all my coral but I was able to keep my fish alive. I have most of of my live rock in a garbage pail circulating for the past year but I fear it is in very rough shape and will take a while to seed back to life as I fear it is very "dead" now.
I want to start up a new tank and use my current cube as a sump for it. My cube is a 37 gal. and I really think I want a simple 55 gal breeder to get going again. those short long tanks always look nice with a reef in them.
Does anyone locally have one that they may consider parting with for a fair price, We are also shutting down our fresh tank - the move on that one went a bit better - (parrots and clown loaches) so I could look at trading livestock for a tank?
Money unfortunatley is tighter than it used to be when I would drop hundreds of $$$ on coral without even thinking.. the reason other than an insane mortgage at Calgary house prices? My wife is Pregnant :) 30 weeks pregnant this week :) :)
Anyhow for those that might remember me, howdy, for those that don't ... Howdy ;)
Albert - Glenda and I miss seeing you up at Golds almost every weekend :p It used to give us something to do on the weekends... Now we just spend our time shopping for baby clothes :)
Is Nate still kicking around? Haven't seen him in ages.. allthough I did briefly see him goining into the Palliser Square tower where I work with fish goodies under his arm a couple months back.
