MORE INFO

Special thanks to "DaJoker" for volunteering the use of the facility. I will go down there tomorrow to check out the layout and figure out a setup for the meet. I invite everyone to bring in whatever they wish to TRADE or sell. Remember bring your own tables.
<b>
We need at least 4 presentations at this one.

Wayne are you still up for the Tunze Maxi-Jet mod?
I have had several people ask about this and I think it will go over great!

"LtPiper" has put together a tank feeding demo.

I will be going over the basics of starting a reef tank, this will be the first part in a series of discursions geared toward the beginning reef hobbyist. I will also be updating everyone on the newest CVRC group project to recolonize the Aquarium of the Americas in New Orleans following last years near destruction by hurricane Katrina.

Jason will be bringing in the Frankenskimmer for a close up viewing and demo on how he created this monster. Jason will also update us on the new PRT II.


We will be fragging a rare coral which we will raffle off as usual with other door prizes if all goes well. </center>
</b>
We can house over 100 so lets get everyone there and fill this place!

<h3>
Everyone that is going to sell frags please let me know here so I can arrange room and power for you.

Also for those wanting to trade feel free to arrange your swaps here.

Feel free to bring in any aquarium related equipment you might want to get rid of as well.

As always, those wishing to donate door prizes please bring in physical merchandise or gift certificates only.

If you have any frags left over at the end of the swap we will get rid of them for you, THIS WILL NOT BE AN AUCTION but you will get some good deals if you are looking for frags for your reef tank.


NOTE:

If you have any coral(s) which you wish to have fragged please let me know and we can make arrangements to frag it/them for you there as part of a demo. YOU MUST let me know here beforehand so I can prepare before the event and I ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE INCURRED TO YOUR CORAL OR SYSTEM FOLLOWING THE PROCEDURE. I have had about a 97% success rate with coral propagation from day one but things happen as all tanks and systems are not the same, those who know me know my reputation speaks for itself on this matter. That said if you have a colony that is outgrowing it's home, post here and we will figure out what and how best to proceed .

I think that about covers it...

if not feel free to ask.

Thanks and we will see you there!

2 Devils hand Leathers (about 2-2.5 inch)
various colors of zoas
candy (green)
Green Palythoa
some nice different mushrooms
</b>
I'll post more and some pics later.

You do realize that is memorial day weekend.

Wayne

 

[firefish2020]

Yep

Kind of Ironic it will be at a funeral home I guess but I swear that was 100% coincidence. We can have it this month or not, makes no difference to me guys. The original meeting was scheduled for April I asked if May would work when we had the problems at the Californian and everyone was fine with that.

If we delay it will be at the end of June.
<b>
It's your call guys just let me know ASAP.
</b>

 

[LtPiper]

I say stay the course and go for the current date.

 

[firefish2020]

More opinions on this guys, the clock is tickin.

 

[bneal3]

I can not be there that weekend but do not stop because of me! A big thumbs up to all that make the meetings happen! Bruce

 

[phljess]

Count me in, I plan on being there unless something unforseeable happens. BTW, I would like to arrange some trades beforehand if anyone is interested. I am mostly looking for SPS or LPS frags. You can look through my gallery and see if there is anything you are interested in and I will let you know if it is available.

 

[essop3]

I'll have a little bit of random stuff. Some Zoos, palys, shrooms. Nothing fancy. Maybe some blue with pink bullseye zoos.

Belive this... Little to no Xenia!!!

We'd be interested in a frag of the purple.

Hey Ron the A/V stuff is available for us that weekend. I'll also have my laptop if anyone wants to do a powerpoint and doesn't want to use theirs, all I need is either a disk or a USB memory stick.

 

[firefish2020]

Sounds great Brian!

Thanks again :thumbsup:

<b>
Ok I need to know how many table spaces and how much power to run for the table sales.</b>

 

[firefish2020]

<b>
Two tables gone we have space for 3 more in the good spot left.</b>

 

[wvdaisy]

Did you have us down for a table?

 

[coralreefer]

Ron go ahead and put us down for a table space.

Don't know for sure what we'll be bringing right now except for a couple different mushrooms.
Maybe a couple kinds of star polyps too depending on what JimsReef gets when he comes over. If anybody is looking for something specific ask.

Does anybody need chaeto?

 

[firefish2020]

No did'nt have you down Lana you got it if you want it.
