New Guy Here!

[Shad]

Hey everyone! My name is Shad and I was lucky to stumble upon this site while browsing for info on my tank. I have a 92 gallon reef set up. Its been up for close to three years now. I have finally gotten the proper lighting to start with some hard corals. I am looking for advice on where to buy from RELIABLE sellers. Im tired of the local "just trying to make a buck" fish stores. I live in orange county NY and don't mind traviling an hour or so to see quality products and livestock.
I am sure I will be asking a ton of questions on reef info, so bear with me.
Thanks and I look forward to chatting with you. Shad

Thanks for all the great responses. Where abouts is this house of fish place?
I just picked up a few corals today and looking to get some more in the near future. I bought two small clams, green slimer(acroporia?), and a few others. I will get some pics on here as soon as they get acclimated to the tank. I must say many of you have some impressive tank set ups! Mine has been a slow work in progress and I finally got the proper lighting to start really getting into nice corals.

Welcome aboard Shad - we just finalized a facility in Orange county, just 25 mins from you, so, you'll be able to cherry pick all you want.

Once you start to get the lay of MR and how it works, shoot us a note, we'll gladly give you a tour of the facility.

ENjoy all that MR has to offer.,

Hey Shad, welcome to our little part of the reef. House of Fish is located in both Chester (my place) and Ossining (Jim's place). When you're ready lmk and I'll give you the 50 cent tour.

Hey Alistair, Steve, we've got another west of the Hudson, north of the Tappan Zee member :party:

Looks like another member of the infamous corner bow club:wink1:

Shad, How do you like the bow tank? I, along with a few other members have this tank. To be honest, if I wasn't so busy with work, I probabably would've put the thing up for sale and upgrade to a 120. It's nice tank to look at but a PITA to work with.
