Upcoming Meetings for the Following Year

What do you guys think of a roundtable discussion? Basically, we all sit around and discuss various hot topics, troubleshot problems, etc.

I like that Steve

But you would have to limit the talk to 2 or 3 days.

Maybe send out a survey/questionnaire before the discusion. Then stick to the top couple subjects.

Just a reminded that the coral propagation workshop is this coming Saturday at 6:00 PM at the Radisson Inn in Monroeville.
 
What specifically will be propogated? Would it be helpful to bring a coral or 2 for fragging or has this already been decided?
 
Bump for those subscribed to this thread.

Eric Borneman is speaking to PMASI this Saturday the 25th at 6:00 PM at the Radisson Inn in Monroeville.
 
The April meeting will be in a room in the Expomart this month. You can/should still enter through the main Radisson hotel entrance. From there proceed to the registration desk and they will direct you. We will also likely have a few board members escorting groups up to our room from the lobby.
 
Hi all,

I will be talking about test kits and water testing at the April meeting next Saturday, April 22nd.

I will be bringing a couple of water samples to use for demonstrations (one or two may be "doctored")!

Please bring along some test kits, hydrometers and refractometers so we can do some comparisons.

carpenterwrasse,

Sure... bring some water too. I don't have an exact plan for the workshop portion, but it won't hurt.

Thanks!

George,
Feel free to bring in your tap water and or RODI water to test. I will be bringing a TDS meter and there will be a brand new TDS/Temp meter on the raffle table.

Here is a bit about our July guest speaker.

Mitch Carl was born and raised in the hotbed of Marine Biology, Omaha, Nebraska. After a brief stint in freshwater, he began his saltwater career at Animal Talk Pet Center in 1994. After quickly realizing that he had no customer skills whatsoever, he obtained his Biology degree from the University of Nebraska at Omaha. Not because he wanted to go there, but because he could afford nothing else. With degree in hand, he marched immediately to the Henry Doorly Zoo and demanded/pleaded for a job. After being mocked mercilessly, he was offered a volunteer scuba/underwater custodian position. Soon after one of the aquarists mysteriously disappeared and he was offered the job and began his zoo career in 1997. On his way to his current position as Supervisor of Aquatic Inverts, Mitch tore down and renovated 4 displays. His current reef tanks include a 26,000gal Sulawesi Beach tank, a 6000gal stony/sps tank and a 2000gal Symbiotic tank. Add it all up and the Omaha Zoo has the largest volume of water dedicated to corals in the nation (at least for a bit longer!). Mitch also started the Zoo's coral propagation program. This 1000gal system produces over 1000 frags each year, and supplies many zoo's and aquarium's with captive corals. Mitch's new project is in conjuction w/ the SECORE (SExual COral REproduction) project and he'll be setting up 4 more troughs and beginning the adventure of getting corals to have sex. Before becoming a father to beautiful twin daughters, he and his wife dove reefs around the world (Bonaire, Grand Turk, Roatan, Catalina, Thailand, Fiji, and Sulawesi).
