Tri-Cities Reef Club?

We will have more up to date info, as soon as Izzy gets his house in order.

On a side note.....I'm going to be doing an order form Reed Mariculture (AKA Reef Nutrition), and if anyone wants to order, we can arrange it, so that we get it at the meeting. The prices are on their website, and I will handle the order and delivery to the meeting. The website is http://www.reefnutrition.com Just go to ordering, and then order direct. You can paypal me the money (add 3% to cover the paypal fees), or I can collect cash from you before the order takes place.

I hope to see everyone at the meeting on the 31st.
 
Bump to the top! Tell your friends! We will hopefully have a definite time by next week. I'll post directions as soon as possible.
 
I have some green & brown Ricordia Yuma for sale or trade, and also have frags of Green with Purple lip Montipora Capricornis. I can bring these to the meetings, if anyone is interested. The Monti's are $10 per frag (around an 1" to 1.5"), and the Yuma's are $15 each.
 
OK, guys, I'm in the house, and my tank looks like crap! When I moved, I had to upset my sand bed. I lost my two clams :( and it looks like so far, only two chromis. Not bad for a move, and the large bio load that this system sustains. I used to pride myself on the beauty my system had, even with the corals I would take in (all were sick, and dying when I got them.)

I am ready to have a reef club meeting, if all of you are ready as well. The meeting will be held on Saturday March 31, at 700pm.

I live in Piney Flats, and hope to hold the meeting here. My girlfriend and I just purchased a house, so be aware that the house is in disarray! All who are interested in coming to the meeting, please feel free to email me for directions izzy_mustang@yahoo.com or email me for my phone number, and you can call me.

This meeting is open to all marine tank aquarists, Fish only, aggressive tanks, reef tanks, or people who are interested in reef tanks, marine tanks, and are afraid of the cost, maintenance, or what have you. We will help you get your tank going, and as a collective, will work through all related issues on such systems.

As far as I know, we have a few SPS guys, a master of some marine fish breeding (he's really good), LPS guys/girls. All members have something to offer. This is not the type of club where you will be beat down with "buy this, or buy that!"

Kenneth has a retail/wholesale license, and has some good connections. Mountain Reef has agreed to help with some sponsoring, details are being worked as we speak, and I hope to have the arrangements made before the first meeting. There is another local store that I'm speaking with on Tuesday of this week about possible sponsorship.

I want this club to be about helping people. Rumors of tremendous cost of this hobby have some skeptical about even attempting a system. I want rumors of that nature to end. I hope that this club will help continue the aquacutluring/captive rearing of corals, fish, live rock, and other such marine animals. The more people that are involved, the more successful this difficult undertaking will be. The friends I have made in this hobby will last a life time, and I hope to make more. No membership fees will be due at the first meeting.

Please, tell all of your friends who are already in, or who are thinking of taking the plunge into a rewarding hobby.

I've been apart of fish/reefkeeping for almost ten years. I learn more everyday, and still have much more to learn. Talking to other reefers and fish keepers are where I learn the most.

I'll stop my rambling, I just hope you will come join our reef club, and bring your family, friends, and anyone interested in this exciting hobby.

PS Kids are welcome. This is a family friendly organization!
 
Looks like it will a be a great time for us to be moving up there in late July. I am really glad you are getting a solid reef club going and look forward to joining.

I liked Kinsport looks like a nice city "except for eastman". Gray looks like a good place to start looking for a first home in the area though we will be moving into an apartment for at least the first year.

Did you guys start a RC club site? Reason I ask, is the mod's changed ETRC's coverage area to your NE corner only. I'm in a conversation with the mods to get our coverage area right, I just dont know why it changed unless they tried setting up a club for you and got confused.

Izzy has PM'd the mods with no response. They were supposed to set up a forum for us, and instead, they changed your forum description. If you get anywhere, let us know who you got some satisfaction from. Sorry for the problems this may cause.

They already responded in another thread. It seems the mods dropped the ball on setting them up.
 
REEF NUTRITION ORDER

REEF NUTRITION ORDER

I'm going to be doing an order form Reed Mariculture (AKA Reef Nutrition), and if anyone wants to order, we can arrange it, so that we get it at the meeting. The prices are on their website, and I will handle the order and delivery to the meeting. The website is http://www.reefnutrition.com Just go to ordering, and then order direct. You can paypal me the money (add 3% to cover the paypal fees), or I can collect cash from you before the order takes place.

I have to place this order by midnight on Tuesday (3-27-2007). I will be delivering these items to the meeting on Saturday, or can meet you before if you wish. You can PM me or email em at AquaticWonders(nospam)@earthlink.net
 
We do not have a site yet! Yes, the mods messed up big time. I borrowed your reef club forum, to gauge interest in a local club here in the tri cities. I then asked for a forum of our own. They asked me for a short description, and the next thing I know, ETRC's forum has our description! I have no idea how that happened, and I haven't received any PM's about a Tri-Cities Reef Club forum. I've forwarded all information required.

If you make contact with a mod, please send him my way!

You know, that was an awesome meeting! I laughed so hard! I hope no one was offended, we got a little out of hand sometimes!
