[Home_Depot]

We will just have to sit on each others laps!!!! 1 wide 2 deep!!
I have some folding chairs James do you want me to bring them??

[dedex]

I have some folding chairs as well...I can throw them in my cowboy...sorry cowgirl cadilac Let me know as well. Alex is peeing in his pants about this meeting...I don't know if it is because he will get to get his snails and crabs, or if it is just because it is "reef stuff" that we are discussing

 

[Mr James]

Bring your chairs if you can. We have a few. We have a couch and a chair down there, plus two bean bags.

Garrett, your corals are doing awesome!! You'll see when you get here. The flatworm covered Monti may not do so well though ans my QT system doesn't have very good lights over it. Good water, just not very good lights. Yet.

 

[Home_Depot]

OK I will throw the chairs in James, Also Thank you very much for frag sitting for me I will owe you some frags later on down the line. I will bring what I can for frags too!!

 

[Mr James]

No prob!! Glad I could help where I can.

 

[blennieluvr]

OK so we need to bring:
1) dessert
2) frags
3) chairs
4) laps

It will be fun to meet everyone (Dedex, Alex, Maddiemae..Garrett, what's your wife's name?).

Bring the frags. Who's afraid of a little HA!

I'm going to have to look into pavers. Sounds easier than PVC even though I already bought PVC.

See ya Saturday!!

 

[Mr James]

Another friend from work will be joining us. Her name is Gail. She's not on RC yet and may just be an onlooker. But she has one up on all of us, she dived the Galapagos Islands!! She just got back from Cozumel. I'll post some pics of her dive trip in another thread.

 

[Home_Depot]

My wifes name is Gretchen

I might not do the pavers I posed over on TCMAS and there was a few that said not to do it?? SO I am not sure what I should do. I already bought the pavers

 

[Mr James]

What are "pavers"?? What are the used for and what do you intend to use them for??

BTW, the snails and crabs came in. A few die offs, (Emerald Crabs) but most are doing fine.

 

[Home_Depot]

They are just concrete squares 8"x16"x1 3/4 I was going to use them as a base for my rocks so I would not have to worry about the sand shifting and rocks falling.but I have read on other sites that they might not hold up good in the tank? SO I might have to go with pvc but not really likeing the idea try it once and did not look good.Maybe I was just not doing right.

 

[Mr James]

I would NOT put concrete paver into my tank. DIY liverock is another story. When you come over, I can show you another way to do it. The thing that sucks about the stadard 125g tank is the width, 18"W. That's why I push for 120g tanks, which are 4' x 2' x 2'. The 2' (24") width is incredible for aquascaping.

 

[Mr James]

HEY, is someone bringing pop?? We are making our grocery list and I don't remember that being announced!!

 

[dedex]

No one ever let me know about the sour cream, shredded cheddar, and crackers for the chili...I can bring pop instead if you wish? LMK

 

[GoingPostal]

I was gonna pick up some pop, should we go for two liters or cases? Any particular kinds liked? I drink Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, Coke.

As far as frags I've got:
3 clove polyp frags on rock and one unattached

2 or 3 blue mushrooms, one unattached and currently under a rock so I have to dig it out

1 red w/ blue spots mushrooms

3-4 red w/ green mushrooms, the super fast spreading kind

3 brown w/ green centers candy cane frags

2 green paly frags

1 brown w/ orange centers frag

2 green skirts, brown, yellow centers? zoo frags

Maybe one or two more zoo frags/ colonies, kinda getting out of zoos. Frags are 3 for $10 or $4 a piece. I'll be dipping them before they go out just in case as I still have some flatworms from that nasty fish store in Duluth and would recommend you do the same. I'll also bring that Sailfert calcium test and some other crap I've got lying around. Tiffany

 

[Home_Depot]

I am bring chips and salsa from T-Juans YUMMMYYYYY One mild and one medium salsa oh ya and some chairs!! as far as frags go I will bring some...well I don't even know what the hell they are but I will bring some stuff...lol

See you all tomorrow!!!

James thanks for the advice I am sitting here looking at my pile of rock going AAAAHHHHHH I wish I had a second brain to help with the aquscaping. I have looked and search the valley high to find some ideas but I can't come up with any. I have got some really neat pieces but I am having a really big brain fat at the moment!!

Garrett

 

[blennieluvr]

I'll be bringing some frags too:
pulsing zenia (maybe 2)
purplish mushrooms (2 small single mushrooms)
kenya tree (2)
maybe a small colony of zoos...not sure yet

I don't know about everyone else but I'd like to have "stuff" on my chili. I drink diet pop but will probably bring my own.

Tiffany - Why are you getting out of zoos? I love 'em!

 

[dedex]

OK, if GoingPostal is bringing pop, then I am sticking with the"stuff" for the chili. I don't know how many chairs you are going to need, James, but if I am going to be hauling a tank home, I will need the room in the cowgirl cadillac for that and not hauling chairs. LMK

 

[Home_Depot]

as far as drinks I am pretty much open to anything but moutain dew I drank it for a long time but now it makes me gag..LOL

I have a few neat small pieces of rock I want to fill with zoo's so I might want some too!!

 

[Home_Depot]

Val I can't speak for Randy but if you live close to james we could maybe deilver the tank to you.

My wife and I ar riding up with Randy
