September Meeting Sat the 2nd

It was great meeting everyone today!

Mike - your tank is sweet! Many thanks to you and your wife for your hospitality and the silver striped xenia. Your stand and canopy are awesome. However, I was thinking that your sump room would also make for a perfect area to have a wall tank facing your living room:D

Steve - thank you for the GSP's and the red mushroom.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend:)

I'm finally home!!! Mike, GREAT TANK AND WOODWORK!!! April, I appreciate the warm hospitality. Chad, I enjoyed meeting you and your wife (is it renee??? sorry, I am bad with names). GlobalP and wife, I enjoyed meeting you too. It's always good to see everyone else.

George, thank you again for letting me see your tank on the way home. You have some fantastic stix.... I'll get there someday.

LadyFSU, I truly appreciate the chalice. It looks pretty rough and has a lot of recession. I will beby it a bit to try and get it to come back. Once recovered, someone with a dremel can frag it at a meeting for us all.

FAOIS - we appreciate your kindness and help too. The fish are in a drip now acclimating. They were quite stressed :( from the trip.

Hey Mike,
She's my wife;) And she says that your son was no bother at all and that he is a "very precious little boy"! We have a son that's 14, but thinks he's 18 and should be able to run the show. Boy do they grow up fast! Enjoy it while you can :D

had a good time glad to meet the new folks and catch up with everyone else

Hey George - next time you want to frag that green or purple cap I'd be willing to travel and pay! The green looked great in Mike's tank;)

I hope everybodies frags do well. I gave out a bunch of xenia, and I know some people have a hard time growing it. But as I was cleaning out my frag tank this morning I found an example of how prolific it can be. Here is a picture of pom-pom xenia growing on macro algae. And I checked, it was firmly attached, not just loosely tangled in the algae. Very impressive little critters

Your very welcome Ted, It was really nice seeing you again and, the wife also said thanks for the compliment on cooking!!! You are right I didnt have anything to do with the food, except me choosing the piggys in the blankets!!! LOL :)

I wouldnt mind hosting another meeting really soon, just let me know if you cant find anyone to host, Ill host all the time!! :)
 
Thank you so much Mike for not only hosting the meeting which was a great time, I just wish we could have got there earlier, but also for helping us yesturday. I know it took up most of your day, and I can't thank you enough.

I love you tank and especially the stand. I love the lip around the edge you have to set things on if you have to.

Thanks to aqautichampster for the Xenia. They were all very stressed from the car ride. The unmounted ones dissappeared as well as most of the pinks, but the mounted silver ones are doing well. I will let you know how they do.
 
Thanks Rebecca and John, it was a VERY fun meeting

Now about picking up the tank/stand/and canopy, my as* is still recupping from that ride!! For some reason that ride took a toll on me!!! Not to mention that blinding rain we got on the way home. That stunk....GL with the plumbing today :)
