Under 25 years Old? Lemme see your Reef Tank

AquaReeferMan · 05/27/2006, 11:58 AM

Hello everyone. I was just sitting on here and wondering how many younger people are into this hobby like I am. I am 22, I live on my own with my girlfriend. I was just interested in seeing some Tank shots from my other younger reefers.

Thanks
Doug

Full Tank

818 · 05/27/2006, 12:34 PM

18 years old, bought everything u see in here myself, equipment etc. Reefing is so much cheaper when you join a local community

Only probelm is I make my money through paypal...Damn the 3-4 day money transfers!!!

andiruleu · 05/27/2006, 12:41 PM

yeh reefing is expensive... im in debt! hahaa but luckily i get my hook ups

Urabggr · 05/27/2006, 12:48 PM

Here's an older (about six months ago) shot of my 120.. I'll get a current one once I get my camera back. I'm 16 and just about all of my funds go into this tank. Once school's over, I plan to go barebottom.

Phillybean · 05/27/2006, 12:59 PM

Just starting...

21 Years Old, Canopy frame will be completed by Sunday.
That is a Q-Tank not a sump under it.

whiteshark · 05/27/2006, 01:05 PM

This is about 5 months old for all intents and purposes. I completely started over after not doing it right the 1st time around...

And this is my favorite inhabitant

Oh yeah, i'm 20, BTW.

AquaReeferMan · 05/27/2006, 01:07 PM

Nice... I remember that part. I liked the first 3 months the best. Setting the tank up, filling it, aquascaping. Thats why I keep setting up tanks. Darn MTS.

ericbye · 05/27/2006, 01:09 PM

im 18, no pics yet but im pickin up sand and some lr today, 45 gallon fowlr

AquaReeferMan · 05/27/2006, 01:11 PM

Nice very nice. Keep them coming. I was really hoping to see a good amount of young adults that are on the right track in furthuring this hobby. Keep up the good work.

AquaReeferMan · 05/27/2006, 01:15 PM

andiruleu nice shot of the Diamond Watchman. Everytime I try and get a picture of mine he shoots back into my rockwork. Also nice BTA thats almost as big as my Carpet. Has anyone ventured into the BTA. My carpet has gotten a few small gobies.

Danfish · 05/27/2006, 01:22 PM

I am 25.
My wife and I have our own house.
Have a 65gal wet/dry I set up once before and it ended up being a damsel only tank (I will not ever never put another (classic)damsel in my water ever again ever.)

I don't have pics of the tank right now because I'm pretty ashamed of the state its in. The water is great and there is no algae to speak of. But since I couldn't afford the live rock yet we were re-using alot of the fake decorations from when it was a damsel tank and quite frankly I think its hiddious.

Have 45 pounds of fiji rock curing in the pool house now, so a few more weeks and I'll be able to stand proud and show off the tank.

I'm moving VERY slow, the tank has been up for 2-3 months now and I only have 20 pounds of true live rock in it. I still don't have high output lighting for it (using the 25 watt fish only florescent it came with). Money is somewhat tight right now so it'll probably be some time.

Nimmie · 05/27/2006, 01:30 PM

I don't have any full tank shots right now, but I'll see if I can get some later. My tank is a 70 gallon softie/LPS reef, and I maintain it at a dementia care facility for the residents. I set it up as my 8th grade community service project in early 2005.
Here goes:

I'm 15, by the way.

Amphiprion · 05/27/2006, 02:16 PM

I'm 20--pics in the gallery.

yellowtruck75 · 05/27/2006, 03:11 PM

Paintbug · 05/27/2006, 03:21 PM

ViPeR_930 · 05/27/2006, 03:29 PM

I don't have a full tank shot, but this is the mid-top portion of my 36g. I'm a sophmore in high school; 16 years old.

Mishap · 05/27/2006, 03:32 PM

What it is Dougy......

Here's my 30 gallon.... soon to be 120 as soon as I get my butt in gear to clean out the basement.

Danables · 05/27/2006, 03:37 PM

Here is my 100gal mixed reef the stand is intended for an island but i had no room in the new apt. The reef is 5 years old and im 24

bjonesjr1 · 05/27/2006, 03:55 PM

I'm 21 and I have a thread on my tank, check it out

click on my little red house lots of pictures or check out my gallery... My wife loves the tank as much as I do, and our little daughter loves to help pick out things at the LFS, all though sometimes you got to say no because it won't work. (she'll learn one day)

tashari · 05/27/2006, 05:32 PM

I'm 25...too old for this surve? anyway, I hav pics in my gallery

jcm2m9 · 05/27/2006, 05:52 PM
