PFO Lighting - March 24th

[capncapo]

Folks,

Don't forget that the PFO Lighting meeting will be held on March 24th. at 12:00 noon. The meeting will be held at the same place that our frag swap was held....Mattinglys Inn in Florissant.

There will be a raffle of a 175W Metal Halide Retro Kit and an Octopus skimmer. I am unsure if the model number at this time but will post it when it is known for sure.

Don't forget to clear your calendar for this meeting. Joy from PFO was kind enough to offer to come so lets give her some folks to talk to.

Ok if I'm a little late? I may be a little late.

 

[capncapo]

Not a problem Jeff.

If your late and you win the skimmer you have to give it to me because I will be on time.

Stopped by Nemos in Granite City this weekend. Their tank with the PFO LED lighting above it is still doing great. Granted it only has Zoo's in it but their colors are very good. They are using it on a zero edge tank and the only thing I dont like is you can see all of the LED reflecting in the water. Should be a great meeting.

I am winning the skimmer, thanks. Someone else can have the halides.

I didn't make it to the frag swap, is this the place?
Mattingly's Inn
8108 North Lindbergh Boulevard, Florissant, MO 63031

For some reason on msn yellow pages it has a link to a roofing material website.

Close but no cigar Brian.

Mattinglys is almost directly across the street from where the map is showing. Look for a CarX muffler place. It should be the next business after that. It will be on your right hand side as you're traveling north on Lindberg.

Industrial Lane goes right next to it.

 

[Grace's Dad]

Okay, so the maps wrong but address is right?
Just need to get close for mapquest directions.

 

[capncapo]

The map looks like it's showing Mattinglys on the west side of Lindberg. It's actually on the east side.

The address is the address that's listed in the phone book. Just follow the map and look for Mattinglys on your right. If you see a Schnucks store on your right then you just passed Mattinglys. Industrial runs between Mattinglys and Schnucks.

For those of you who ordered T shirts, I will be bringing them to the PFO meeting on Saturday.

In case you don't remember the prices, long sleeve shirts were $19.00 and short sleeves were $15.00.

Capo what kind of model of octopus skimmer am I winning tommorow. I am rearranging the sump to fit it tonight.


The $20 will be in my hand when I shake yours at the door......
