hey all. I don't have anything setup. I've just been researching the last few months.
My plan is for 50g 24x24x20 CADlights setup w/ LED's (the new EcoTech LED's are looking great)

I appreciate all the welcomes! I live a few minutes from Princeton! I've so far gone to, Oceans Gallery II, All Aquatics, Aquatic Obsessions, Fish Factory, The Hidden Reef. Theirs a new one called Captivating Corals in Freehold that was suppose to make their grand opening last week I think? They've been open for quite a few months, but haven't made a "real" grand opening since they were still setting up. I popped in because of a suggestion from my local reef club. I met with Mike one of the owners who is quite awesome!

I actually won a pack of Zoa's the other day. I'm still waiting for them to arrive! A local reefer is going to hold on to them for me!

Welcome to another jersey reefer. You can try tropaquarium in ocean township and reefs to reptiles right across the street. Captivating corals is an awesome store and the guys there are extremely knowledgeable if you has any trouble they are a great resource for info.

thank you, thank you ! I just visited trop & reef to reptiles last weekend! Both good choices!
Mike at captivating coral is awesome! I visited in June I believe. I will def. be buying my livestock/corals/rock from them! He only had the corals setup when I visited... but he made a BIG impression on me.
