New to area

Hey guys!

New to the area from Charleston, WV. Most all my coral died during the move last week, and my tank cracked on the way down as well. (Just had it drilled and herbie installed) So I've bought a 29g and am currently trying to rebuild.

Had to hook up the overflow box again (hate that thing) and got a spike in ammonia and some terrible smell from all the death... but been doing WCs and its coming around.

I have been to Creative Aquariums of Tampa and love it, but like to check out a few nice other reef shops around. Any recommendations? Also, if you have any nice acans, zoas, frogspawns or other softy frags... I'd love to see some pics. Need to get this tank rebuilt and looking good again!

here's the tank before the move/crash!


- James

I have a small rock with a big Kenya tree, a few button polyps and lots of coralline algae on it. It's yours if you want it and when your tank is ready. Where are you located?

Thanks for the quick replies guys. I'm in South Tampa, W Wyoming Ave. I might take you up on that Chris when this stabilizes a bit more, thanks for the offer that's awesome.

Also in the market for a nice used powerful return pump, mine was perfect for the 20L but the extra height of the 29 really took away from the pumps flow (should have expected that)

ALSO I MISSED THE 1$PG SALE AT PETCO BY A FEW DAYS

I think Petco's sale is still going until the 11th. You may be able to get a tank still.

Welcome to the area.
