  2. I figured the best thing to do since I hadn't been on the site in a while was start a meme thread.

  3. ... late RSVP to the meeting only.
  4. Hello, I plan on being at the meeting tomorrow. I hope to help make a smooth transition to a new Treasurer this year and see other people step up in person, if not here on the thread tonight yet. 🙃 Don't be afraid, @ddeurloo is a great president to work with, and INDMAS is a very simple financial organization!!
  5. On my way, rsvp haha
  6. bump... stars (and starfish) aligned! see many of you this afternoon.
  7. late rsvp, I'm only bringing cash.
  8. Name: Ben Meyaard Gender: male Age or Age Range: 39 Twitter/Instagram: i don’t actively participate in twitter, but you can dig up all my terribly former thoughts at bmeyaard and BenMeyaard and there was a local news troll account at one point ... Where are you from? Flat Rock, Indiana. I’ve lived in 10-counties but never out of state. Type of Tank(s): 40 breeder Photo(s) of you: Full Tank Shot(s): Favorite tank pic(s): How long have you been in the hobby? Since 2011 when a friend moved out of state and left me a 5g, 3-rock, 1fish, I pump, no filter unit, and an rodi unit and said ... good luck, do your water changes, your kids will love it What do you like most about the hobby? The idea that Indiana can be a part of the #thirdcoast and keep oceans near us too... I have one of those three rocks still. Other pets: no, I’m a divorced dad with four kids who drew the line at no further pets. Other hobbies: disc golf, super Mario maker, chartguys/technical analysis, Work: TORAY accounting supervisor, moonlighting as INDMAS treasurer Favorite food: yes please... anything set out with care for others Favorite music: Umphrey’s McGee. You all above said “not country”... I like lots of not-pop country. I enjoy blue grass, western, folk etc. .haha Favorite movies/shows: peaky blinders, sons of anarchy, true detective, the wire, spongebob, macgyver, simpsons, and not many marvel/superhero movies. Something else you’d like to share about yourself: my tank took a back burner in 2018-2019, so I’m looking forward to the 2020 swap to kickstart my enthusiasm while I ride everyone else’s excitement.
  9. Working my way up there, but will be late. See you soon! -Ben

  13. Haha.
  14. great tip on the primer too. That'll save someone a redo down the road!
  15. "Without the extreme pressure and cold to support their bodies they are extremely fragile and melt rapidly when brought to the surface," Linley said in a statement. So they are like zoa's in my tank then.
  16. #metoo You wanted us to post pics of our beers right?
  17. Diligence in syphoning it out during water changes, and chemiclean a couple times were what beat it back for me... Keep up the good work!

  20. Hello again everyone. Sorry for the delay. I've been pretty tied up with responsibilities of my day-job and family extracurricular activities... but we've had a productive conversation in the staff forums and I'd like to share an update. Expenses Total : $5,199 (Removed Speaker Expenses less MACNA payment, Updated Flag/Banner for split of non-swap expenses.) Total Profit $1,401
  21. Really enjoying watching the new branch develop on my gorgonian from @Budman Also, really excited to have the mix of encrusting yellow sponge tied into the base of my anthelia from @tanknovice... I don't have anything else in my tank that YELLOW, and I love it!
  22. I 😍 that your keyboard autocorrect against DIY
  23. B/c I've had my aqualifter fail / a tube come off, and not have the proper consideration for failsafe... I would like to remind everyone: NOTE: this project deals with electricity in sufficient quantities to damage equipment, harm livestock, cause fires, and even KILL YOU. I am going to be as clear and concise as possible, but if you are at all unsure about what is shown here or you are not 100% confident in your ability to work with electricity, DO NOT attempt anything here. This is no joke. 🤦
  24. For only ten bux I bet this would keep something topped off... just not accurately enough to maintain salinity, right? https://photos.app.goo.gl/K6z0RDKQjy5vxLxI3 What else could you see getting in the way of pulling this off successfully as a DIY? Tee-hee, the brand is "Dare-o-matic"... anyone Dare me to try it?
