Donations for Brooke's Nemo Tank

Brooke and her family came into GWA last night. It was great to meet them and she is really looking forward to getting her own tank. She is a very shy girl and they thought it would be best to show her the store before the night they get everything.

Brooke fell in love with a Chocolate Chip Starfish, so no matter what we showed her, she would look and then run back to the Starfish. She did get a pretty good kick out of watching all the fish eat. That got her to giggle alittle.
 
Super nice family, they have a fair amount of SW knowlege so it was fun to see them name the fish and inverts.

They got the marine invert pocket guide by Dr. Shimek to study up on some basic corals and all the cool snails and crabs.
 
I've still got a 4-5" piece of Kenya tree to give. When would be a good time? A few weeks after the tank is set up?
 
I have a hob 100w heater, power head, and magnet glass cleaner from salty3 in my car to drop off tomorrow.
 
You guys are awsome.I'd also like to help if I could.If someone could PM me the address to Gateway Aquatics,I would like to send some cash to keep on account for the family.For a clean up crew or something.

Hi, thanks for visiting,, I have to say, I like the bunny, very cool.
 
Thanks pewter_jean for the info.I'll call them today.I love your avatar :) The bunny is from another reefer that wants people to copy it to their signature line.He wants to spread the bunny! LOL feel free to copy it.Back to the subject.If theres anything else we can do for Brooke and her family,please just ask.If we can help we most certainly will.Your Very special people here on RC.
 
We can't wait for the Nemo tank! Again I just can't thank everyone enough for what you are doing. You are giving us something positive to focus on which is a welcome distraction.

So who is comming down? I am looking forward to meeting more of you. email me and I will give phone number address and driving directions(bgwil99@hughes.net). I just want to let you know upfront that Brooke is probably the shyist little girl you will ever meet. You may not get one word out of her, and may not get much of a reaction to her new tank. I assure you though she is very excited and hasn't stopped talking about it. And after you leave she will start up again ... " now, when do I get my clownfish". lol
 
Any chance Chad/Steve/Trottie could update what's been dropped off? Once again I'd hate to donate a subpar skimmer if a better one has been dropped off. I guess Trottman could turn it into a bong? Also just want to make sure they don't get 20 powerheads.
 
$20 gift certificate from MPCart

$40 for Clownfish from PaulB

GFI from PaulB

HOB filter from Rena

Seio from Rena

Misc stuff from Rena

That is all that has been put into my hands.
 
I have been out of town on a not so fun vacation. Steve is doing a great job of keeping track of everything and items can be dropped and kept at the store until the family is ready to get things going. I will also be donating a $50 Gift Certifcate . If anyone needs the store info pm me or steve "Letmegrow" he has been keeping things organized as they come in.

Thanks, Chad
 
I take it they don't need my seio then since rena beat me to the store.

I'll try and find something else to donate.
