Blue Tang Clan November 22, 2021 Share November 22, 2021 (edited) Attendees: Lynn.reef.nerd DFR cpeguero Abe Marley1083 George S [Edited - Background] Hi everyone -- I've wanted to go on a tank tour since joining the WAMAS community years ago, but I haven't seen many offered -- COVID definitely slowed down that desire with many people. Now that my tank is in pretty good shape, I'd like to host one myself. I view these opportunities as a two-way street: I want to show you the things that I think make the system work really well, but I also want feedback/tips/tricks/criticism from attendees on what I can do better. What might fail? What could I add (or subtract) to improve my enjoyment of the tank and its maintenance? You get the idea. Time: TBD in February 2022 - likely a Saturday morning @ 10:00am Location: Potomac, MD -- near 270/495 Slots: 6 people total -- COVID being what it is, I want to limit the number of people in the fish room and display area so everyone has enough room to move around comfortably My wife and I have a youngling, so I would like to ask that everyone in attendance show proof of vaccination ahead of time. If that's not your thing, I completely understand, but it's the entry fee for our house these days Topics of interest to me: Calcium reactor or 2-part? What is your favorite DIY fish food recipe? Flow and lighting in the context of an aqua scape If you're interested, post here and I'll keep you up to speed as we get toward the last month of 2021. Thanks! -Justin Edited December 27, 2021 by Blue Tang Clan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morning -- I've been contemplating pushing this out a bit more due to Omicron. I'm fully vaccinated and barely go anywhere, but my one trip to the post office gifted me COVID-19 last week. Keeping everyone safe is my first concern so I'm going to update the Post #1 to reflect February. Let's hope the world calms down a little by then.

Blue Tang Clan July 15, 2022 Author Share July 15, 2022 I’ve been buying and selling a ton on WAMAS so I think tank tours will be 1:1 with frag purchases going forward. My wife keeps giving me side eye because of the time I take away from our toddler for hobby activities so I need to streamline things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
