  1. Maybe using a HOB type refugium with clear glass or acrylic inside the tank instead hanging on the back of the tank?  That way you would have flow and custom lighting over it for the corals.  I guess that would be the same is your idea with an acrylic or glass walled off area in the back.  Just copy the water flow and lighting concept of an HOB to go along with it.

  2. Wow! Great idea!  However, I am sure it will have a lot of challenges to figure out flow, lighting, maintenance, etc.  I think one of your biggest maintenance issues will be keeping the partition (glass and acrylic) clean since algae will definitely grow on it with the lighting you will need for the corals.  You have most likely already have done this...looking to see if anyone else has built a tank like this.

  3. This is one of the most important meetings that we have as our committee chairs, secretary, and treasurer are up for election.  Please keep in mind that this club only works if people volunteer.  If you have not volunteered yet, please give this some serious consideration.  I can't tell you how much this club has meant to me in regards to my own growth in the hobby through the education that is offered and also the great friendships I have made via the social side of the club at monthly meetings over the past 9 years.  Without people volunteering for committee chairs, officer positions, and staff positions, this club will not be able to continue to exist.  As many of you are already aware, many clubs have already shut down during and since COVID.  I would be extremely disappointed to see our club cease to exist as well.  I have so many great memories of the education topics that have been provided, social interactions at meetings, and trips...locally and nationally.  We have a lot on the plate for next year such as the FRAG Swap, monthly meeting calendar, education topics for the monthly meetings, etc.  Personally, I will continue to support the club's committees and hosting the new member meeting.  

    Mike's oldest son, Michael, is getting married next Saturday so I will not be able to make the meeting.
