Hello from the Great Northwest

[TJ's Reef]

Hello All, finally decided to join up here now that I have enough free time. Since I know many of you already and some will recognize my avitar and text style will seem like Old-Hat. I've been keeping a reeftank since 1982 (except for a couple transition years) currently have a ultra high bio-load SPS reef 125g (60x24x20) with 75g sump/large fuge. Oversized SWC skimmer, Ozone and a DIY custom East-to-West linear LED lighting array. I'll start a new thread to show the highlights of original build thread in next couple of days. Until then here is a few so-so shots from a while back (none current as is in the middle of Salmon Fishing season)

Cheers, Todd

Hi there
Nice layout

 

[TJ's Reef]

Thanks Guys, nice to see you here Daryll. I'll definitely need to get some updated pics on a new thread after seeing how bad those above are. Plus after four months has had significant growth on most corals and will need a good trimming again.

Cheers, Todd

Thanks again All and do promise to get my build thread online this week. Really am enjoying the geographical mix and experience levels of this forums membership base, traveled quite a bit in the past for business and always liked stopping by any SW and/or Reef Stores within reach to see what that region had to offer.

Cheers, Todd

Yes, quite a few recognized members here from the Pacific NW. It will be fun not being a Mod for a while and being able to participate in some of the cool contests here. Still need to finish up rough draft on my condensed build-threads from other site and do some much over do maintenance. Three plus months of Salmon fishing and a trip to Kauai I didn't notice that my Alk line was kinked on my dosing pump :doh:
Did find a short video I took with my Android in July to hold ya over til I find the time to set up the SLR
Hopefully this works


​Cheers, Todd

ABSOLUTELY! The Skykomish River is calling my name :ear: plus there is a nice late Native Coho run to be fished yet. Shoot me a pm if you'd like get out :fish2: sometime, Duane (trido) and I fish together quite often.

Cheers, Todd

Will do I do a lot of late fall and winter fishing back home in Texas. But I will most definitely let you know. Yeah I recently met Duane at the most frequent frag swap we had.
