SHARE YOUR NOOB EXPERIENCE!
We we're all new to the hobby "noobs" at some point and some of us still are. There is no shame in that nor is there any shame in making honest mistakes! Now let's help others by sharing our worst "noob" experience. Anything from worst hunk of junk equipment you bought because your LFS said it was great, or how you put a lionfish into a 40 breeder, plumbed a skimmer backwards and turned it into a fountain, etc..
The WINNER will be drawn randomly from this thread. This is NOT a better story competition. Just share your noob experience and you will be entered to win!
PRIZE: Tunze Comline Reefpack 250 shipped to your door by TUNZE USA!
The new Tunze Comline® filters opens the way for compact aquarium components designed for internal operation, are ultra-functional and are highly-sophisticated. The system creates a natural atmosphere in the aquarium at a minimum size. The goal always remains the same, more performance and less space.
Tunze Reefpack 250 is a complete solution for the filtration of reef aquariums up to 65 gallons. It includes DOC Skimmer 9004 and Comline Filter 3162. The filtration units are packaged in a 13l (3.5 gallon) bucket which can be used as a top off reservoir when the optional 3155 Osmolator is fitted in the filter. This unique and elegant solution removes surface film and provides protein skimming and a place for mechanical and chemical filter media. It mounts easily on glass for acrylic aquariums up to 3/8" thick with the included magnet holders and keeps all the equipment required tidy and with minimal intrusion as the 3162 can house a heater of up to 75w (not included).
