August Meeting

[ct_vol]

What do you guys think about having an August meeting??? We usually don't do a meeting the same month as a Frag Swap, but I was wondering since we didn't have a June meeting because of our swap, and the July meeting is a week later than usual and a few can't attend, if you guys want to have an August meeting??? I am thinking August 22nd, which would be the weekend after the Chattanooga swap...

LMK your thoughts... A few have expressed interest in having the meeting at Aquatic Marine... I think it would be a nice way to show support to them since they helped to sponsor our swap...

That's the name of that place. I keep forgetting it.

That sounds like a great idea to me -- especially meeting at Aquatic Marine. I'll have no excuses not to make that meeting (it being 4000 feet from my house as the crow flies -- about 2.5 miles on surface roads).

Be sure to bring a few $$$ for fish -- they have good prices.

I heard something about $50 Blue Spot Jawfish... :eek1: Not sure if that was a rumor or not...

 

[Runner]

I think that is what they are charging. That guy is pretty cool -- they have him in one of the big coral tanks in the middle of the floor.

When I say good prices, I mean I got a purple firefish for $28 and a yellow and a green goby for $7 each. I have recently seen yasha gobies for $40 and a Helfrichi firefish for $99.

$65 is I think what we paid for our blue spot. They're in abundance at the wholesalers right now.

Ok, I just sent Trent an e mail since its 10 to nil thus far...

Thanks

What time would the meeting be? What works best for Aquatic Marine? Is there a place nearby to meet for food after? I am assuming nobody has ask to host the meeting, right?

We did have a Blue Spotted Jawfish in our Coral Tank, but he jumped out last saturday. We put a cross in where he dug his little home.

Poor George...

Bojangles and a BBQ joint aren't far away. There's always the Powell shopping district proper with plenty of more options for food.

Oh Noooo, not George. So sorry, he was so darn cute.

 

[ct_vol]

Where is the Bojangles???

I was thinking 12 noon for a meeting time...

Aquatic Marine (Trent) said they'd provide Pizza and cokes for us...

That's a shame -- he was fun to watch. I think those guys are guarenteed to jump eventually unless stopped...


Bojangles is in "downtown" Powell. If we head south towards the Walmart/Target area of Clinton Hwy, though, there is a Salsaritas there that would be my idea of ideal for food if free pizza wasn't on the menu.

 

[ct_vol]

Oh!!! I know where that Bojangles is... I've only been to the one in Lenoir City... Its not bad, not sure if I'm a fan of those onion potato things...

I'm going to have to try Salsaritas... I've heard from multiple sources that it is quite yummy...

 

[macclellan]

Wait, so Pizza and go out for food after?!?

Yeah, Salsaritas is yummy!

 

[ct_vol]

Who said anything about going out to eat afterward???
