Does the spot the arc contest count? ima catch up to chrisp on the luck lol

You haven't won yet, you're just entered into the drawing. Of course, you're the only name in the bucket right now so you just have to hold on for one more day...

The club recently received an Accli-Mate for review, but depending on the fish it may be too small for extended acclimation.

They have an XL model but it's super expensive.

The one that belongs to the club is available for check out by Premium Members. PM me if you would like to arrange a pickup to try it out. The only commitment is to do a product review for it afterward.

I like them, have a few in my pico. I'd leave them alone.

We've only received one legitimate entry for the Coast trip and a few gags for the SeaWorld trip. If you want to do an event shirt for SeaWorld we'll need some entrants quickly in order to have time to print them. And if you haven't pre-purchased your SeaWorld tickets, don't forget!

I don't use an iPhone myself, but I know that several members have used and recommended it as a good solution. Any of you Tapatalk users care to chime in?

And we have our FIRST spotted vehicle, congrats to CKYUV, so far our lone entrant in the May contest. If you're a Premium Member and did not get a sticker with your membership please contact a me or dapettit to get one. If you're a basic member, what better reason to sign up?

I went to seaworld and aquatica this past weekend it was alot of fun though i now have a season pass is it possible to just pay for the tour?

Yes, just post here telling how many are in your party with a breakdown of how many will need admission tickets and how many will be attending the tour.

Holy cow, it is your birthday! Congratulations!

Happy Birthday Matt

Dave Pettit's majano wand will probably work on it as well, but yeah, that stuff goes everywhere.

If serious damage is not being done, they'll hash this out within about 2 weeks. If the smaller one looks like he's getting hurt then you'll want to separate them.

Thx for the reply. I'm gonna keep my eyes out for some 55 gallon drums, but if in the next couple weeks I cannot find any I may hit you up if you've still got em. Have they been cleaned out well or would I need to do that? What would you recommend the best way would be to totally sterilize something like that so I could start storing RO water without the risk of algae or bacteria growing in it?

I'm using Dr. Pepper syrup barrels as well (14g and 30g) and all I did was rinse them several times with a cup full of bleach added to the water. I rinsed them over several days and then let them dry out. I actually like the faint smell of Dr. Pepper I get when I open them.

If you search on Austin, Craigslist for "water barrel" you'll get tons of reasonable priced options. I bought my 55gal from the barrel supply in Buda on the southbound service road because I was in a rush, and I feel like I overpaid at the time.

If the reduced price buy goes through, are these one time tickets (the park ones) or are they the "use all season long" ones?

These are 1 day tickets, not season passes

That's a great deal on a nice all-in-one fixture. I have a clone of it over my 90g and have been very happy with it, and I paid almost $400 for mine. The hanging kits for it are only about $20, someone should snag this!

Where should I send my payment?

Tickets are available through the ARC store (link here)

Go to aquatek, get the 3 blue 3W stunners with the 12v adapter, just use the double sided tape it comes with and you're done.

There are much cheaper options than that if you only want some blue light at night. Stunners are great for actinics with your whites, but you can get something for less than $10 than will provide blue light at night. Additionally, red light actually lets you see more creatures at night. I ran one of these in my Solana for quite a while.

Remember that you'll still want them on a timer so that the tank gets some hours of true darkness each evening.

So we cant just pay at the park?

Sorry, not if you want the discounted rate.

Hill Country Water Gardens in Cedar Park always had a very good selection as well.

I've got a rose bubble clone that bleached several months ago but is now regaining it's color. These are the mommas, the clone is about the size of a baseball:

FYI, if you need gear and large crowds are ok, this is for you. (perfect for picking up items for our Coast Trip)

The Coleman Plant is having a tent sale this weekend. Anything Coleman makes pretty much is out there (bag chairs, tents, cots, life jackets, air mattresses, camping stuff and ice chests, ice chests, ice chests)! The Coleman plant is on FM 306, so if you go down 306 towards Canyon Lake it is on your right hand side before you get to the first railroad tracks.

What is the cut off date for purchasing tickets?

Payments must be received by June 15th

I'll be marking the count as PAID as I receive payments. I will have to purchase all the tickets a few days ahead of time and have a method to distribute them before the event. I'm thinking we may have two meet-ups (RCA and Aqua-Dome) a few days before the trip in order to distribute tickets. Payments must be received by June 15th to insure that we have enough time to get the tickets and distribute them.

I got prices on ARC SeaWorld t-shirts, and for the dri-fit wicking material we're looking at about $10-12 apiece and should be able to accommodate most sizes.

I've got a 250w MH ballast I can cut a deal on if someone is looking to complete the pendant you have (#2)
