Im so happy to be back reefing:mrgreen:

Hey Rich, we can't actually believe you unless there's a pic...running lights on this one? :razz:

Joined in 02.... you are an old fart.

:behindsofa:

I think Doug is the oldest fart. :p

:faint:

Don't worry Doug, Brad's just as old fart as you! ;)

On the other hand, post some pics Rich! :D

Ya rich we need to see some pic so we can see if thIs is you like brad stated lights on all the good stuff, a 48 inch 33 gal I have to see that. Never seen a 48 " 33 gal

I will provide some proof later today :biggrin:
Brad i had so much success with my last setup that now i'm going illuminate my tank by burning two hundred tea light candles everyday!:idea:
yup doug does qualify for the old fart club lol

Ok how does one upload a pic again :mrgreen:

easiest way is to get a photobucket account and copy and paste teh img code to the thread

Ok well proof is gonna take much longer now:redface:

Ric I love the tank is that custom made

Thanks, its a standard aqueon 48x12.5x13

and sadly yes brad im still running old school tubes,
tho i did get some nice t5's this time around:razz:

Hey Rich, nice to hear from you. See you again in another year or two when you next post "who's still here?" :p

Wow i didn't see anything on my calender but it
must be trash on rich day today:biggrin:

So whatcha got under those tealights? (BTW I've never seen 20k tealights before, cool! I don't think you can get those at the IKEA over here.)

Hi Tony, the tea lights are actually two double banks of
coralife t5's an running two actinics and two 10k.
I'm pretty sure they will work for what i have planned
for this setup, which wont be anything too crazy
just some lps an such. So far i have two tomatoe clowns,
a yellow tang an watchmen gobie. As for corals, as single
crown of hammer, a closed and an open brain an a few
feather dusters. No skimmer as of yet an this one is sumpless
so just a hob filter an a few koralia 425s for flow.
I guess i will need to edit my username to
sumplessfishe now:mrgreen:

Welcome back Rich. We use clouds these days. Just kidding for now.

Wow, back from the dead or what?

Nice 33g long Rich. Good to see an old-timer come back.

Anthony

Hi guys, nice to be back:biggrin:

Sam you still have the same tank running?

Anthony how many tanks do you have up now?

Heya Rich
Good to see you back. You still living down the safeway?
I'm still in the same place. I've downsized to 120g - one tank only.
Unlike anthony........ who downsized but has 8 tanks.

Hey Rich, Good to see you have some water in a box again. I'm sure you will be back getting gobbies to breed in no time

J

bwhahahaha some how i just knew anthony would have more than one:lol:

no chin i'm out in langley now, sold the old pad last summer and got me
a new pad on the top floor so now i can damage four floors with a flood-not!
will have to come check out your tank some time?

That's only 7 tanks (downsizing as in volume only).

I sold my 210g with 75g sump, but since then have added a 3g fw shrimp, 4g sw Volcano shrimp, 8g Fluval Flora red frogfish, 34g Red Sea Max, and 30g fw planted (for my wife). My two main tanks are a 2' cube anemone/clownfish and a 165g full reef.

Hi J hows your tank doing?

I refuse to respond to this thread.....old farts hmmmmmph

Yup, I guess I'm in the old farts category... and I'm back from a few year hiatus, too. Good to see you, Rich :)

hmm.. don't know about this old fart stuff.. Don't worry about Brad Ritch he is still just as cranky as ever.. not enought metamucil I think :mrgreen:

Steve

I swear I banned you. Let me go check. While I'm doing that, why don't you go get a tank? This is a forum for people with tanks. Containing water...

me too
 

yeah funny i took about a year and half hiatus. now i'm back into the groove. I guess we all go through these episodes of depression and interest.

Hey Rich,

Glad to see your back. I love the idea of floating tealights in a tank. Kinda romantic when all the lights are out.

Cheers,
Tim

Welcome back Rich! Nice to see Tabby hasn't lost her interest either :wink:

I'm know I'm just a newcomer here next to some of the relics on the board but I felt it necessary to interrupt this big group hug to point out that Ryan's a mod for frag's sake and has no tank. Thanks.

Thats funny steve, but no tank! wth lol

hi bev good to see your back too!

hey tim, hope all is well, did pat tell you i called

Dammit Brett.... I WAS minding my own business. :twised:

Ryan
