[coraljunky]

Woohoo, my name stuck. Oh yeah, PRESENT.

Justin

[metweezer]

I'm here. Congrats on the name, Justin. I still don't know what was wrong with MAGFLOAT :lol: :lol: :lol:

[RicksReefs]

well, the vote seemed to lean to TCFrag, so I ran with it. ;)

[metweezer]

I'm just kidding Rick.

[RicksReefs]

besides, I don't think we could afford the trademark infringement lawsuit. :D

[ladybug5234]

Aly in Vero Beach, present for roll call. When are we organizing a meet or frag swap?

[GaryR1984]

Ladybug,

what school do you teach at?

I grew up in IRC

[ladybug5234]

I just moved here, so I am originally from Miami. I teach at Highlands Elementary. Do you know where its at? Where did you attend?

[GaryR1984]

ya,

I went to school at Sebastian Elementary, then went to Dodgertown Elementary, then Sebastian River Middle School, Sebastian River High, then went to IRCC for a year before moving to Gainesville.

I hope you like the area.

[ladybug5234]

The area is quite a change of pace from Miami. It is peaceful and uncrowded. A little boring at times, and very lonely since all my family is down South, but it is a great place to raise my daughter.

We just went to the North Aquatic Center today, right by SRMS.

[GaryR1984]

So their done building it? My parent's live less then a mile from SRMS. When I went to school there that wasen't even started yet, was nothing but woods for hunting.

[ladybug5234]

Yeah, that's been up & running for a while now.

[GaryR1984]

ya I moved away 4 years ago.

[paintballer768]

Jensen Beach huh? Im interested in joining, but I think many of the clubs are either way north or way south haha. Im in boynton beach

[RicksReefs]

for boynton, you have either FMAS (http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=235) out of ft. laud, or PBMAS (http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=308) out of palm beach.

but your welcome to drive on up.. :)

[metweezer]

This Sunday @ 4:00PM people @ Chilli's. I hope we have a great turnout. :D

[gjh289]

Hi, It had been a month or so since I last logged in. It's nice to see a club on the Treasure Coast. I'm sorry I missed the meet and greet so I hope to meet some of you next time.

[CHOPRJOHN]

JUST JOINED TODAY SEPT 19 2008 IM IN ROSELAND FL. I ALSO BELONG TO INDIAN RIVERREEFING CLUB & BEVARD AREA REEF SOCIETY

[RicksReefs]

ok, cut the caps lock, your sceaming at us.

we get it. there's another club in irc. stop spamming our club too.

to get your own forum, all you have to do is ask a moderator.

to be a part of this club, all you have to do is sign up. we don't need spam from other area clubs looking for members too. we're laid back, similar to the way the BARS club used to be.

I'm all for inter-club participation (?) but multipule plugs for your club borders on spam.



and no, spam does NOT taste like chicken...

[ladybug5234]

Rick, I think you misunderstood ChoprJohn. I dont think he is trying to spam or get new club members. I think he was just saying hi.

[metweezer]

+1. Other than his message being in all caps, I agree with Aly. I think you just intimidated the poor sob. We may never hear from him again:wavehand:

[CHOPRJOHN]

Thanx ladybug & metweezer you are correct i was just saying hi. Im not that easily intimidated i was married twice lol Anyway i'll start over Hi all Johnnie ><)))0>

[metweezer]

Hi Johnnie,
Welcome to Reef Central. :wavehand: So tell us a little bit about yourself. How long have you been in the hobby? What size/type of tank do you have and what do you have in it?
Steve

[CHOPRJOHN]

Thanx Steve; I had FWChiclids most of my life. After i moved here 2 & 1/2 years ago I got a 45 gal. tank set-up as a Christmas present. Seeing i always wanted a reef tank, i took the plunge :>) I have since upgraded to a 75 gal. tank with power compacts a wet/dry filter & a skimmer. I have about a 100 lbs. of live rock,several soft corals & a small clean up crew I want to upgrade to t5s soon, maybe a better filter. Whew thats a lotta typing for me. Thanx Johnnie ><)))0>

[CHOPRJOHN]

P.S. I also have a Bartlets Anthias and a damned Damsel thats way smarter than me. Ive been trying to remove, it but like I said.......... Johnnie ><)))0>

[metweezer]

So many people buy a damsel only to pull their hair out to try and capture it. Some LFS's also recommend you to buy one to cycle your tank. Such a bad idea.
Where exactly is Roseland?

[CHOPRJOHN]

Its close to Sebastian which is between Melbourne & Vero Beach. The damsel was sold to me as a Yellow Chromis from a LFS thats no longer in business, turned out the owner was a real piece of sh** Johnnie ><)))0>

[ladybug5234]

Ha ha... I just bought a fire samsel. But he is going in a fish only tank so if he becomes a PITA, then I can take him out quickly and effortlessly. Choprjohn, have you tried The Logical Reef in Vero Beach? Lee is a very nice and knowledgeable guy.

[metweezer]

Aly,
I have been to Logical Reef. I bought a green birdsnest from Lee. It didn't survive. I don't think my lighting was suitable for it, even though he said it would be :sad2:
I go up to Vero every Tuesday.
Steve

[ladybug5234]

What kind of lighting do you have?

[metweezer]

130 watt pc over my 29 gal.

[ladybug5234]

No way would a birdsnest survive with that light. How long ago was that? The minute you see something not doing well, tell Lee about it and he will make it right. This, or course, is within reason. If you buy a coral and 2 weeks later it starts crapping out, I am sure Lee will tell you to bring it in and either nurse it back to health for you, or give you a credit. Now, if the same thing happens 6 months after your purchase, I don't think there is a LFS that will do anything about it. As a a matter of fact, if you have ever been to Cindy's in Vero, you may have noticed that they have a No Guarantee on anything saltwater.

Lee is a good guy. Talk to him and give him the chance to make it right. He's done it for me countless times (of course, I am a regular at his store).

[CHOPRJOHN]

Yah i like Lees also the store on Babcock. I wont mention any names...Dont wanna get yelled at again Johnnie ><)))0>
