A quick idea I had for all attending:

I'm trying to get my zoo rock going (large rock in center of my tank, I want it covered in different zoos). So here's my idea. If you have a frag of zoos (at least 2 polyps) that you'd sell for $5, bring it. I'll commit to buying 10 for my tank ($50 total) and the rest will be available for anyone looking to pick up something cool for their tank.

This doesn't need to be limited to zoos, so if you have sps or other frags feel free, but each should be a $5 frag. This way everybody has a chance to take home something new for their tank. What do you think?

Great idea Mike!

Bring on them $5.00 frags.

I'm a new member and would like to try and attend the meeting. I'm in killeen, so its a bit of a drive, but will try to make it happen. I've been looking for an excuse to go to austin and check out a River city aquatics anyway. I've heard it's a pretty good shop.

Glad you asked.

We'll have cups/plates/ice and will provide a few bottles of soda. Feel free to post here if you would like to bring drinks or snacks. Finger foods, chips, dips, etc will be welcome.

Kids are fine as well as long as they don't mind a friendly dog and slightly demonic cat.

Much to my dismay found out I have to work this weekend. As a part time contract employee can't argue or refuse. Will be unable to attend.

Hey Seahorse, I have four Toadstoll Leathers on a rock. Because of rotator cuff surgery, my right shoulder is in a sling, if you want to break the rock, you can have the frag. My tanks are in Limbo at this time due to my limited mobility.

I had planned on bringing some baby CapnellaS (Kena Tree).

Mike, you are almost in Hays County. I often drive to Buda on FM 1626, coming from the west on FM 967.
