NEWBIE FORUM and TANK TOUR 10SEP 6-8pm

[jason the filter freak]

ps. why am i a 'talker'?! ... i don't have anything to talk about! "and our next speaker will be Charlie, who will attempt to explain how to have a successful reef tank using nothing more than the WAMAS boards, and Blind Luck that everything works the way it should."

 

AAAAEGKH! *cough* no pressure.

 

I can see that working as long as it's not a case of the blind leading the blind

[jason the filter freak]

[HowardofNOVA]

So Jason MIGHT come over and CHARLIE will be the starving Reefer! :wink:

[NightOwl]

I'll definitely be there. Any room to bring my girlfriend along? trying to convince her to pick up the hobby....

[HowardofNOVA]

Cool, does she have a girlfriend?? ....just serious...I mean kidding! :wink:

 

No problem at all, that will be 3 couples there so far!

[HowardofNOVA]

UPDATE:

Looks like we are around 15 folks, because of room, probably could slip in another 4-6 more and that will be all I can squeeze into my place!

Got an algae bloom going on now, so running out to BRK to add a few more cleaners until main order comes in later next week. If your on the list can don't think you can make, LMK? If you want to attend, dittos!

Remember, when you come to the house, go to left side down driveway, through gate to back side and down steps.

See everyone then!

[jamesbuf]

I'm still down as a maybe. I'm going to be drinking and watching football all day with friends, so I'm not really trying to get myself into any trouble swerving around on the highways. We'll see.

 

And Howard, I'm looking into getting into either the bluezooaquatics or AI order, so I can see your handywork then.

[Ne0eN]

Howard...

 

I guess I can talk about how not to overstock your tank with too many incompatible Surgenfish...

 

seriously Howard... you might have been lucky with some docile Zebrosomas in the past, but a yellow tang and a purple tang will always fight in a tank this size. I agree with Craig, ditch the yellow tang.

 

Jason, I'll be bringing the temp controller I'm holding for you. Jamesbuf, Salmon Alley - are you guys coming by any chance? I've got your mag pumps. I'm also looking for anyone who may have a 3/4" bulkhead and flat worm exit...

 

See you all there!

 

-- Rob

 

PS. Howard, is it ok if Pam tags along?

[HowardofNOVA]

Open house 6-8pm

See you all there!

:wink:

[EricBrian]

Howard,

 

Nice tank. The aquascaping and the LR you got are great.... especially the blue rock.

 

Hope you'll do it again when you have it fully stocked.

 

Thanks

Eric

[Charlie97L]

howard, thank you so much for your hospitality... sorry i stayed so late!!!
