Hi all,
I wanted to introduce myself. I had a reef tank about five years ago in college for a couple years and really enjoyed it.
I had a 75 gallon, used Pennys (aqua corals.com) system, and it was great.
Now that Im more settled- recently bought a cottage on a lake- I am looking to get back into the hobby. Ive got some remodeling to do and once that is done I am looking to jump back in.
Ive got all the equipment for the 75 gallon, including a nice 4 bulb T5 Tek lighting system.
The only problem is my cottage isn't very large- 700sq ft- and fitting the four foot tank is going to be a bit of a challenge.
I have a perfect spot for a 3x3 cube but can't seem to find any used ones nearby.
If i don't find the cube Im looking for I will go ahead with the 75 gallon (which will probably be my more affordable option).
Looking to make new friends in the reefing world in the state and possibly down the line do some frag swapping etc.
I look forward to learning from others experiences on the forum and will post pics once things are more settled.
Cheers,
-Jeremiah
Camden, Me

Welcome, you will likely have a hard time finding a used cube tank unless you make I down to the Gorham area to stop in to easy aquariums. I know they have many options for cube tanks and often times have many used tanks in their warehouse as well. That said, you really can't go wrong with a 4ft 75 gallon tank either.

From Camden, your closest stores are in Belfast, Ellsworth, Bangor, and Bucksport. The Belfast store doesn't have salt livestock.

Augusta's not far away either and my businesses are in Waterville/Winslow, which is nice because aquacorals is the next town over. I usually order most of my stuff online-liveaquaria.com Diver's Den. Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I cant wait to get my tank set up and going |

Autocorrect clearly doesn't know what a FRAG swap is. I'm not sure I want to know what a fragrance swap is.
