Tonights October Meeting!! Thanks Tracy and Cindy

[ducklabdad]

Robin and i would both like to Thank Tracy and his wife Cindy for hosting the club meeting tonight. Everyone truly enjoyed the hospitallity and the food was wonderful, the Chili was really good and Robin could not stop talking about the Soutwest Soup. I am sending Cindy a PM for Robin requesting a copy of her recipe for that soup.

I think we really had a good productive meeting and really look forward to the club doing some really good things in the near future. Also thanks to Dave at Kermits for donating the addtional door prizes..Only thing we needed was all of you that did not make this meeting!!

Tracys new tank set up really has the foundation for being something really nice in the next few months. His hand made rocks look as natural as can be and he can be proud of the fact that he has really taken his time with this set up and I think he is really ready to start stocking it at this time (Anyone has any spare frags they need to find a good home for he can use them he is ready now to get the show on the road!!)

Thanks,once again!!

Bill and Robin!!

I so hate that I missed this meeting. I really enjoyed the thread that showed the build of Tracy and Cindy's tank and wanted to see it. Hope to make a meeting soon.

Thanks again for the great hospitality! Had a great time as always and really enjoyed seeing your tank and setup. I bet before ya know it corals will be all over the place in that bad boy.

(Bill thanks for being our Moral compass. Once again, right on!)

Tracy's (Andy) tank was great. (I just love Cubes! Maybe next time.)

In any event, good Club business was discussed, good food was consumed, and good friends were visited.

Thanks to the Hosts, the Officers & our Sponsor: Kermit’s Reef for tons of Goodies (especially the Marineland Heaters.) Here are a few shots of the evening.

The food was great. Alex and I had a good time tonight. Thank you for hosting the meeting.

I think we should amend the by-laws to only allow Bill to introduce no more than 6 ideas per meeting. :lol: All 30 of your ideas were good though.

Thank you SO much Tracy and Cindy for inviting us into your beautiful home! That tank is gorgeous and I can already visualize it full of coral and fish. Let me know when/if you're ready to try to raise the clown babies and I'm happy to help. That soup was REALLY good! The drive out when I followed Google maps was long, but the drive back on 14 was a snap and I was home in a half hour. EASY drive! Now I know.

Thanks, too to Dave and Chris at Kermit's for loading us up with so many donated door prize goodies that we have some ahead for the Christmas party! Dave, your support of the club is SO very appreciated! The store looks great!

If you haven't been in to Kermit's lately, stop by and ask Dave to show you his hand made rock. It's amazing! So real looking! I can tell you that the next time I set up a tank some of that rock will be there. VERY impressive, Dave!

Very enjoyable meeting! Thanks to our hosts, Kermits and all of you who made the drive to be there.

Ducklabdad explains his name:

At one time I raised, ducks, Labrador Retrievers and Kids, at the same time.
I kept the ducks (Pintails, Woodducks, Mandarins, Ringed Teal, Cinnamon Teal, Fulvous Whistling ducks, and Red Heads) in a 500 sq foot planted outdoor Aviary with a 1100 gallon water system with waterfalls and a small pond.) and no Marty I did not raise the kids and thee dogs in that same habitat. (They had there own "Biotope".)

My son who is now 21 gave me this screen name when he was 8 and it has just stuck. Here is a picture of my 21 year old "frag" He is currently recuperating from Tommy John (ligament) Surgery to his elbow due to damage he recieved Pitching.

Thanks!

Thanks!

WOW... what can I say, I was overwhelmed last night. I want to thank all of you for coming. I really had fun and learned a lot!!!

Bill, Robin and Marty the presents you dropped in my tank are awesome! Woke up this morning and they were all stretched open and wide awake - look really neat. Thanks again.

Marty, I took some string and very gently tied those suckers down to those small rocks and put them back in the cups. Is that ok?

Again I want to thank everyone - I really enjoyed myself.
Tracy and Cindy

Like Al Davis used to say, "Just win Baby!".

Actually, if that or the rubble rock (sandwich) method doesn't work, use an old Onion Bag, gently stuffed in the small platic Cups, on top of the (face-up) shroom just to hold it against the rock. (You just want them to attach (foot) to the rubble rock.)

So whatever, it takes to get a frags "Foot" in the Door

BLAHHHHH!!!! HAAAAAA!!!!!HAAAA!!!! HAAA!!! HAA!! HA!!!!!

i have a very nice size montipora cap that would look good in the left hand corner( towards the back) of your set-up, all you have to do is point me in the right direction of a used 75 or 90 tank and stand(w/canopy of course at a real great price tag) and come to pick it up

 

[Mako Shark II]

There was one out there recently... a 90.

Do a search.
