Morning all , well in the uk anyway. Just started to get back into reefing after a brief break of 40 years . A lot has changed , no more steam driven pumps or heating your tank with coal .
I’m in n/w London , uk and looking forward to selling my first born child so I can afford all this gear . Have a Red Sea reefer 450 laying fallow and slowly building up all the kit I need . In the meantime have a converted jewel 120 lido I converted to marine to keep me interested .
Anyway, just wanted to say hi and see if any reefers are in this neck of the woods
Cheers

I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread under Forum > Member Aquariums and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)

This might help you find people local to you:
