Well fortunately all was not lost for me... Flyers took care of the Pens with relative ease. We ended up getting back into the area around 5:30.

Anyway, how'd things go peeps?

I had a great time; managed to give some frags and came home with some cool, new stuff too. Bobby's a great host and has a great setup. I'm sure someone will be posting some better, but my pics are below.

A big, fat thanks going out to Bobby and Matt for making this thing happen today. I had a really great time, and met some very nice people. We should absolutely do this again...soon.

I didn't have my camera with me today, but I did manage to get this shot. It's mean, I know, but I couldn't resist.

Yes much thanks to Bobby, great hospitality and kick a__ set up!! Big thanks to everyone as well for the additions to my setup. Frags are looking good, most opened nicely already. Left my camera at Bobby's (sent you pm turbo) so once I pick that up I'll post some pics.


:thumbsup: :bum: :beer:

Great time everyone! Matt, Bobby, Darin, and everyone else, I can't thank you all enough. I tried to post some pics, but , for some reason, I can't "see" my e-mail size pics on photobucket.com. Darin, the above post is hilarious! Maybe I should have placed my noggin under those lights too.

Hey everyone I hope you all had a good time, I know I did. It was great to meet all of you. I am uploading some of the pics I took now(taking awhile), I'll put them up later tonight or tomorrow. I hope we can do this again soon. We could probably all meet up at TFP when they are having their frag swap(NCPRS), I think it is at the end of Jan.. Again, I hope you all had a good time, made it home safely, and made a couple new friends. Talk to you all soon. Have a good rest of your weekend.
Matt

RFTRD, what can I say douche bag, no actually that was really funny, it made me laugh. It is all my brains pushing my hair out from the inside, not. LOL. Have a good one bro.

Here is some pics I took, sorry I should have taken more of Bobby's actual set-up and not of just his corals, hopefully someone else has some more shot of his set-up(m0nk was smart enough to take some good shot of his system/s, thanks Alex).

 

[trippkid]

Couple more of the 300 gallon tub.

 

[fishyfriend4u]

I had fun guys thanx for the advice and frags! Made it home fine to Chambersburg almost died on way home but it is all good!

 

[NCNBilly]

Awesome event! Bobby is a very gracious host to say the least. I was up till 1:30 last night acclimating and mounting corals.

Everything is looking good this morning, full polyp extension - even on the Xenia.

As asked, I've restarted my phyto farm - I'll be taking some pictures along the way and we can do a meeting here in the near future to show everyone how easy it is (if you promise not to look at the algae in my tank). I'll have gifts too, although not nearly as nice as we all got yesterday.

Got a question for Bobby (or anyone else who remembers):

What was the name of that Brightwell Aquatics product that basically replaces vodka dosing? Thanks!

 

[NCNBilly]

Snake Oil (tm)

Hey everyone, btw, I forgot to ask around if anyone has any lighting that could sit over a 20L for fragging that they don't want a whole lot of money for. If anyone has something let me know.

I also forgot to ask Bobby about the lighting he had sitting there for sale before leaving yesterday, was there anything that might work for this? Thanks!

I've got a 20" 2x 36W straight pin PC fixture I used previously over a 10gal nano. Both bulbs are shot, and therefore I can't be 100% sure it still works... plus it's 10" too short for a 20L. But I'll let it go for $20, and if it doesn't end up working when you try to fire a new bulb, you'll definitely get your money back. It should work just fine and dandy, but I just can't verify with dead bulbs.

long shot, just figured I'd throw it out there...

Hello Everyone I wanted to offer a Special Thanks to Bobby and Matt for making the Saturday meeting possible. I had a great time and made some new friends!! Thank for all the frags and thanks for the great time!!!! I hope we can do some type of meeting every 3-4 months at least.

Thanks again for everything..

Ryan

Hmmm, the Susquehanna Reef Club appears to have only male members... is that by design? Too bad I just got to this thread now, the day after. I'll look for updates if you guys decide to meet again.

Nope! Schmidt01 (Kim) was supposed to be there with her girlfriend (and maybe her husband, Brian). I guess something came up, and they couldn't make it. Hopefully, they can come the next time! We look forward to meeting you as well!

:lol:

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. It might be something I can use with a cheap clip-on halide if I can't find a cheap T5 setup.
