Maarten from The Netherlands

[Maarten]

Hey everybody,

After already following reef2reef on facebook, I figured it was time to sign up. I'm Maarten all the way from the Netherlands and I have had a reeftank for three years now. Probably like others I started with a Red Sea Max 130D, which after months just turned out to be too small. Switched to a RSM 250, which I had for almost 2 years until I decided that I was sick of the sump in the back and wanted a custom tank. So that brings me to my current cube tank which is only about 4 months old and is still maturing. I will post some more details on it in the appropiate section later today.

What brings this dutchman here you might ask? Well I noticed that some of the good things in this hobby not only come from europe but more and more from the states. So I hope to learn some new stuff here and maybe improve my tank.

Looking forward to start browsing these forums! :nerd:

He Maarten..... wij verwelkomen jou hier bij R2R.
Hoe lang ben jij in de hobbie?
Soms hang ik bij de Nederlands en Belgisch Zeewater Forum.
Verontschuldiging voor mijn Nederlands als het is een lange tijd dat ik het geschreven and gesproken heb, LOL!
Well, Sinterklaas is juist om de hoek heb jij je schoen al neer gezet bij de kachel?
Volgende keer willen we een paar foto's zien van you Aquarium.

Hey Maarten........... Welcome on R2R.
How long you have been in the hobby?
Me myself sometimes login at the Dutch and Belgium marine forum.
My excuses for my Dutch as it been a while I wrote or spoke it.
Well ST Nick is just around the corner and wonder if you placed your shoe by the fireplace already (Dutch tradition)
Next time show us some pics of your setup.

Haha. Bedankt voor de Nederlandse welkoms woorden. Gaat nog best goed het Nederlands.

Thnx for the Dutch welcome. Your Dutch is still pretty good. My kids set their shoes for st nick, but we are more Christmas people :).

I hardly ever go to the Dutch and Belgium marine forum. I am not that fond of the discussions there. My Dutch reefing hangout is with Dreamreef.nl

Will put up some pics of my tank tnite!

And to everybody else thnx for the welcome!

*Welcome to Reef2Reef!* I find it comical(sort of) that you mentioned the Red Sea pumps.I tried to pull one out the other day and it came apart in two places.It's funny now,but I wasn't laughing then.
