It's not super active but people check up on it. I'm in Puyallup so not too far away. Have you started a build thread for your tank?

 

[Cichlid Dad]

Yes I just finished my 90 gallon build I have not added this video yet but this is my new tank. https://youtu.be/7jqGPbkpIso

Nice to meet you and let me know what you think. I started reefing July 4 of this year

 

[Cichlid Dad]

That was an in process this is the finished tank

Looks like you are off to a good start. You should make a build thread and post updates.

Most of the PNW reefing community seems to interact on facebook, there are two large groups there that are active. Look for "Next Generation Pacific Northwest Reefkeeping" if you use facebook at all.


Additionally south King Country has lots of reefers with two home-based aquaculture vendors in Auburn.

Thank you for the great info, I did find a home based a few miles from my house. I couldn't believe the selection and prices.

That’s interesting. How’d you find them? Facebook?

I purchased 2 clowns from OfferUp and was given her phone number.

How's your tank doing? Haven't seen an update in a while.

Had some ups and downs but still going strong. Phosphates got a bit difficult to control out of no where, and am fighting through some different algae. didn’t realize my alk res was empty and it dropped to like 5.5 dkh. Lost some SPS that just seemed like it was starting to take off.

pretty much trying to balance out nutrients. Have to dose Nitrates to get anything measurable on a test, and trying to find a the best method for managing phosphates. Rowaphos seems to work good but it’s pretty expensive.

I don’t do a lot of posting but I for sure am here poring through questions and answers others have asked pretty much everyday haha I need to get an update for the Cade posted though for sure.
