pco1988 February 21, 2010 Share February 21, 2010 I completely agree! I normally get tired after sitting so long, but Paul had me in stitches during his whole presentation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoozilla February 21, 2010 Share February 21, 2010 I didn't know fish/reefing history could be so fun. Thank you Paul and Paul's wife for a great presentation. Congratz to all the newly elected officers. WAMAS officers, well done on another successful meeting. Great raffle prizes to be had as usual. Thank you generous Vendors and fellow hobbyists.

MMfish February 21, 2010 Share February 21, 2010 The reason fish are more prone to spawn, or reproduce with a fatty diet as suggested by Paul B., is due to the sex hormones being fat based molecules. The same holds true for humans. In cultures with a higher fat diet, menarche starts earlier in life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul b February 22, 2010 Share February 22, 2010 Thanks guys, we also had a great time, I am glad you enjoyed the presentation. We were treated royally and the hotel was great. We would also like to thank Brian for the tour of the Viet Nam Memorial wall. When ever we get to DC we like to visit there, and Tom for taking us to the meeting. I am glad we got a chance to sit with many of you for dinner and get to know each other. It is 9:00 PM in NY now and we just got home. This morning my General friend met us for lunch and drinks and drove us to the station. When we got to NY and got on the Long Island RailRoad we also met another one of our friends who was coming back from Boston. After I left the meeting I remembered that I forgot to mention to you guys how we came about to use live rock. That was also Robert Straughn and he called them anemone rocks because of all the aiptasia anemones on it. He thought the anemones had something to do with purifying the water and never considered the bacteria. Take care and thanks for a great time. Hope you enjoy the feeders.
