zoos for club meeting

I'm going to try and go by and pick them up this evening. I will post details here as to what they look like. I imagine that he got us something pretty nice.
 
Awesome! I can't wait to see them myself. I missed the thread from yesterday -- I must say I have been a little out of it from the time zone switch. Thanks to all :D
 
I was just there this afternoon, they had some pretty nice pieces in. I wonder which ones are yous guys'.

Not a member of the club yet, just thought I'd chime in. Speaking of which, do you guys frown on nano reefs? I don't have a large tank right now and I'm just not 100% sure I could actually contribute anything to the club just having an 8 and 10gal. But I've been in the nano reef scene for quite a while... if you've even been to the Aquatic Critter they usually have a little tank setup on the counter. I actually set up the first nano reef there in the store when I managed to convince Ken that it was possible. That was... jeeez... 5 years ago? Anywho, I'm rambling now and this post is getting longer that it should've been, but anywho, like I said, what's you guys' views on nano reefs?
 
scucci....thats all i have....a 20 gal, and 5gal pico....and i love them both....i dont think anyone here would frown upon them....unless you stick a tang in one!

At times I think that I'd prefer the smaller tanks. It's easier on my wallet to find the small frags. :D

I only have a 29 (bascially fish only), 20 (mostly rock), 12 (mixed coral) and my favorite, a 5 gallon (zoas and mushrooms).

Awwwwww... I'd have to get rid of my huma? But the names soooo fun to say!

I kinda followed you here BTW. The MTRC formed shortly after I joined the Navy and I learned about it through Val and Vern... I don't think they're in the club anymore, no idea what happened to them actually. But I've seen you around on the Nano-Reef forums and then popped in and saw you here so I thought I'd test the water. Some people don't like nano reefs so I just had to check.

But yeah, they are alot easier on the wallet. I felt so bad about frag hunting at Ebay all the time that I starting buying pieces of actual coral just to ease my mind... now I have an ugly mushroom leather (not a big fan of them) but I do have some nice acropora and monitpora frags, plus I don't know how many different kinds of zoas and shrooms. 25 bucks for a nasty leather and I don't remember how much for the hammer, but small price to pay for piece of mind... And I'm ramble'ng again, sorry.

I'll see what I can do to try to email the PDF application to whoever I need to and I'll get my dues started on paypal then. :)

Thanks.

huh....you followed me here?......how?.....i dont post much and i dont remember the last time i posted at nano-reef.....anywho, cool!!!...lol
 
Actually followed Fanof49ASU.

Well, not really followed, but saw him on the Nano-Reef forums and noticed his location. When I was looking through here saw a post from him, followed it down to this forum and figured that yous guys would probably be okay with the nano thing.

I'm still in the old mindset. When I joined the Navy and had to tear down my tanks, nanos weren't very popular. And even though I had kept my 3gal stable, happy, and growing... we still had people like Dr. Ron telling us that it was impossible, or at most very hard to do so. Even when I was working at the Critter I had people telling me that nanos were retarded and that they wouldn't work. "Nothing smaller than a 55." Heard that I don't know how many times.

Anyways, this is getting way off topic! Atleast... -I'm- getting way off topic.

Looked at the zoas in Ebay, looked great. Looking forward to joining you guys. I'll try to make every meeting that I can, but I can't promise anything with meetings at the Critter... haven't been there since I went to pick up my final paycheck... bad blood, at least on my part. But, oddly enough, you can still see me in the commercials. lol

And I rambled again..

Short version.
Great zoas, looking foward, thanks again.

Welcome, Succi!

No frowning on nano's here. I'm actually trying to figure out how I can work a nano into the budget. I was browsing some stuff last night. I'm really not up to speed at all on nanos, and my biggest concern is how to keep the water quality high (skimming) but have it be quiet and compact, and how to keep them topped off so that the salinity doesn't swing too much if say this were a nano for my office and I wasn't there for a few days.
 
Most people don't run skimmers on a nano, my 10g has a AC110 modded into a fuge and with regular water changes the water is perfect. Top off is more of a problem though, I'm dumping in almost 2 qts every night.
