Is there a volunteer list yet?

Some of you know I've been looking for something new for a while now but circumstances have changed a bit and it's more urgent. I've still got my old gig but need to make a move ASAP.

The types of jobs I've been targeting are coordinator positions, events, marketing, PR/relations, management.

I thought I'd might as well mention it here just in case anyone knew of an opening.

I like it, sad I won't get one from working

The orange ones really were pretty bad. The dark blue was the best. I wear that one regularly. This year's looks good too.

good luck! I had a stealth back in the day explode when I was cleaning the tank! Scared me to death. Based on reading etc I went with the Jager's too. Dustin's right, equipment really is the biggest drag. We work so hard to get all the science right and then stuff like this happens!

Woops missed the thread. First time not volunteering in years :-( Put me on reserves I guess. Otherwise, see everyone there.

Added a Omega Speedmaster Pro with the arrival of the new baby boy!

....and my bigger fish tank hopes... down the drain (for now)

They are puping right, just way less than I expected. That coming from x2, Magnum # 5's

Uncle Bill's in greenwood carries ORA. We write ORA on our tags on the saltwater wall. And if we don't have something you want we can order from them if need be.

ORA green mandarin's? Get a price for us. I'm sure there a few people interested in those. I've asked premium several times but they've told me they weren't available to them yet.

I want a ORA manderin!

If you are feeling lucky, they donated the following 700 GPH kit we'll be raffling off at the swap!

That's really pretty cool. Might make for a good option. I see no drawback to that. 1500 version might be better though.

Do we have anyone comfy with drilling glass and likewise building an overflow box? Just curious as a lot of us look around at used tanks here and there, and a lot of tanks aren't "RR".

Obviously there would be some understandings involved that the liability is off as far as a disaster. Just a thought I had while flipping through some swimming pool sized tanks without holes!

That' looks like a significant improvement.

Yea, hopefully it's not too much.

Alrighty... Did the Magi Klean. As the guy in the video found it does a nice job. Better than the vinegar I've done before but the end result is probably the same. regardless. These pumps still don't gush water like i'd hoped. Maybe i'm expecting too much? When placed in a bucket for example about half way down there are just small ripples at the surface, is this right? I'd have thought I'd get some turbulence.

I'm going clean the magnums i have in the tank already and change one to the Algea Sure Flow magnet and impeller. Apparently its a pretty good upgrade of flow.

Will that one work that you linked to?

Thanks. I just looked and think that's just for little inverts? Have you tried it with fish? I'm not sure from what I saw online how it works.

I need to borrow a fish trap. Does anyone have one?

hopefully the cleaning does it.

here's info on that hydor chemical - fyi

I aquired 2 750 evo's recently and tried to use them for the first time to mix some water. They are used but anyway very low flow. I was gonna try some of that cleaner stuff from Hydor but other ideas/advice?

the watch collection as it stands..

Panerai Luminor Base

Girard Perregaux Gyromatic

Ball Conductor

Mondaine 2TZ

Swatch Irony Chrono

Oris Regulator Classic

Phillip Stark Orange Light LED

Seiko Speedmaster

Rolex Oysterdate

Seiko World Time

oh and iPod nano on the LunaTik

Scotch of the moment is Famous Grouse 12. I tend to mix a mix.

placed the order this morning. livestock has gone, "out of stock" then back in this morning so katrina and i pulled the trigger. I'm sure we can do another as a group if people are interested. one thing most of us have in common is a willingness to buy fish!

haha ....and we have a picture thread! maybe i'll get pics of the whole collection for ya!

Apple is rumored to be working on a watch to interface with the iphone.

I'm a watch collector too. What have you fellow collectors got?

looks like a few people are ready. probably next 2-3 days. turns out the fish i wanted is now out of stock.... calling tomorrow to see if there is an eta. either way will likely order in the next 2-3. so let me know and we'll all arrange the order
