Hi from Philadelphia

[spideybry]

Hi all, I'm Bryant from Philadelphia. Been reefing for a few years now and I was looking to join a new forum. A friend recommended this site so I figured I would check it out. I was reading around and recognized a few people so hopefully it looks like a good place

Here is my current setup. I will be making a thread soon.

Hi, I got my rock from BulkReefSupply.com. It is a mix of dry "reef saver" rock and dry Pukani. I wanted to start over with seeded dry rock, to avoid algal/hitch hiker issues. So far so good. As far as corals go, I got from a bunch of different places/people, mostly from people I know in PA.

Thanks I have a build thread but it is on another forum. Hopefully I will bring it over later today.

Ok I am definately interested! Ive been looking around for live rock locally (king of prussia area) trying not to ship it. Same with the corals lol. Is there any good stores in the city?

I also want to know wheat kind of lighting that is..ha but Ill see it in your build thread I guess..

 

[spideybry]

I will fill you in if you like. I am not too crazy about the store selection in my area. We do have big stores, but I tend to get my livestock from people I know and trust personally.

As far as the lighting, they are Aquailluminations Sol Blues LEDs

As soon as my thread is approved I will post a link

 

[User]

Ha see I dont know/trust anyone with those kind of items. How bad are the stores?

Ok I cant wait to see it! Those are nice lights!

 

[spideybry]

lol, The stores aren't bad.... I just am not a fan of the prices they have on livestock. Dry goods are decent most of the time. Also not a fan that some don't have knowledgeable employees/employees that care enough about the hobby and sometimes misguide people... Then again I guess that is everywhere -_-

Thanks on the lights I love em

 

[User]

Thats why I try to do the research before buying lol I just need somewhere to buy it. So I already know what I want before i walk in

 

[spideybry]
