Not going to make this one, got a wedding to attend

I plan to be there with a plus 1

I decided against it.

We had a wonderful time last night with some new faces and some we haven’t seen in quite a while. Great turnout with delicious food and drinks. Thanks to everyone that came out to the meeting/Christmas party! It’s the fantastic people like you all that make this a great club. I have a couple items left behind let me know if they are yours.

What age are your kids. I will have a gift for them to

Looking forward to seeing everyone. I will be providing wings of different flavors, carnitas and couple pies for dessert.

I will be there

Hello everyone, There has been an INDMAS forum on Reef2Reef for several years now but apparently the mod for it left long ago. It has fallen through the cracks and no one trying to join could get approval for a few years now. I have been asking by R2R to take over this position. Basically approving members that want to join and to make sure the post agrees with R2R rules. So if you wish to join head on over there and you can now get approved. Apologies to anyone that has tried in the past and not been able to join.

Not going to be able to make this one.

Are you running bare bottom or with sand. If sand then get a conch snail and or a few nassarius snails for the sandbed

I’m not going to make now. Extending my stay in Florida with the grandkids

What tickets are everyone planning on getting? The early bird? Is the plan to get Saturday tickets only or Sunday too?

I will be there.

Awesome. Congrats on the new tank

It looks good from the photo. Are you having a particular issues? Do you have test kits and test your calcium, alkalinity, magnesium, nitrates and phosphates? Those are the major things to test.

I know summer is a busy time and wanted to thank everyone who came yesterday. I had a great time talking with people and enjoyed showing everyone my systems. I hope you all enjoyed it and may have learned something new about running a FOWLR (Fish Only With Live Rock) tank. And that you can have a beautiful tank without coral by adding colorful angels and butterflies.

We are making Carnitas and strawberry cake.

Come join us at the Summer Social! Not just a regular club meeting but a day full of fun and games with lots of delicious food and drinks for the whole family! Pool will be open, weather permitting. Disclaimer: No lifeguard, swim at your own risk. Children must be supervised at all times. Outdoor games include corn hole, basketball, water bucket tic tac toe. Sidewalk chalk for kids. Feel free to bring other games if you have them. Indoor games: pool, shuffle board, ping pong, cards. Let me know how many kids and what age group as I will have something special for them too. Hope to see you all there!

I will be there plus 1. Will bring a dessert

So just spit balling here but looking for everyone’s opinions, advice and input. I have been thinking about reducing my number of tanks down to 1, plus my qt systems of course. I love my butterflies and angels, you know, the ones that would eat my corals, so I have to keep them. I have been brain storming about a tank within a tank. Don’t know how exactly this would look. Or how much it would cost. Tank is 84” x 30” x 25” Option 1 - maybe something down the middle of the tank , somehow hanging from the center braces. Would the center braces be able to handle the weight? Would probably have to be acrylic so is lighter in weight Would i need slits on all sides for flow? This might be a nightmare for keeping all the slots, hole clean. Would I also need a power head inside this tank? I’m thinking this acrylic tank would be 72” x 8” or 10” wide and deep. Option 2 - something across the back wall of the tank. This could be acrylic or glass and siliconed in place. This would probably have to be 2, one on each side of the overflow. I think if it’s glass, only way to get flow would have to be ph in each one. Would it get enough light on the back wall? Would be same size as above one. Would be very hard for me to reach to clean the glass. (I’m only 5’ tall) Was thinking either one would be just slightly under the water level so fish can’t get in and still allow for some water flow. Ideas, thoughts and opinions. Is this doable and still look good? Any issues or problems I’m not thinking of?

Thank you Craig.

I’m interested.

Won’t be able to make this one. Gotta help our daughter move.
