I want to start a new build thread

[Dj City]

Where and how do I start a new build thread?

I have a 15gal column tank that I want to turn into a reef tank and I want to take whoever is interested along for the ride.

Thanks in advance..

I have a related question. What is the moratorium on build threads? I mean, what if I built the tank about 15 years ago (and it’s be improved many times over). Can someone in that position do a “build thread”?

Absolutely. There’s a thread on here for a 40 year old tank. Aka before the internet :)

Old or new, you can create a build thread for any tank :)

Also, if you create a build thread, copy the link and apply for your build thread badge HERE and select "Join User Group" under Build Thread Contributor :)

Should I wait till I have all or most of my equipment to start the build thread?
I have the tank but not the filtration.

The great thing about build threads is they're ongoing. You can post as much or as little as you want :)

Do it now! :)

Oh, dear. “Gotta catch em all?” You sound like my son trying to turn me into a Pokémon trainer. Is that a Pokémon reference?

Lol, I have a 6 year old who is obsessed with pokemon. I used to be when I was a kid. Back when there were 150. What is there now? 800?

I was just informed that the current Pokédex (Pokémon GO) has 373 (straight up, no derivatives included). I’m doing my best to appear “engaged”.

You could absolutely go ahead and start one now. Some guys on here have build threads that don't get wet for around 2 years! :-)

Ha! It was. I’m in no way connected to them as a 35 year old man. I did watch the show as a kid though :)

I have thought of doing this with my 75 that I set up around 2000. I started and thought, “Nah, no one is going to want to read about a tank put together 20 years ago.” Maybe I will reconsider.

Do it! We'd be glad to follow along!
