November Meeting

[Timfish]

Hey everyone @boognish (aka Chris) is hosting this month's meeting!  It will be Saturday, November 16th at 1:00PM.  Address is 1105 Tanglewood Dr. Leander, 78641. You gotta come see his awesome, new to him, 330 gallon system!  There will be food and beverages so please RSVP here or let Boognish or myself know.  

[+Grog]

I'll be there.

If anyone wants me to, I can bring some frags:   green ricordea mushrooms, eagle eye zoas, fire and ice zoas.    Please LMK beforehand.  I'd rather not transport them, and hack them off, if not necessary.

Let me know if I need to bring drinks or any food stuffs.

That's awesome y'all are getting the meetings going again. I can't make it up to Leander for this one but I hope to make some in the future. Have fun! 🐠

We appreciate the offer but food and drinks are covered.

I've got free Purple Stylo, Pavona cactus and Xenia available so holler if anyone wants some.

[mdpitts]

I’d love to come! I’m new to the club. Been reefing for a year. My tank is too new to bring frags but I’d love to pick up purple stylo, and any Zoas anyone wants to offload. Can’t wait to meet y’all!

[+Jakedoza]

I've given Tim a couple of Rainbow BTA splits that I found in my sump that I'm giving away. It must have gone over the overflow then split in the sump. It seems to have healed up, but were in a not so bright area.  Looking forward to this meeting!

Count me in this Saturday.  I've been out for a long time and just got back in.  Got a new Pro Star 150 and just a FOWLER for now but going to do the softies soon.  

[+dapettit]

Robin & I will be there. Looking forward to reacquainting with old friends. I have a couple of Jason Fox Fox TNT Anacropora frags I don't mind bringing.

[Timfish]

Great!  Looking forward to seeing you all Saturday!

[Guest Aquarancher]

I would love to come meet some fellow aquarists!!  I have had both freshwater and saltwater tanks for a long time.  My saltwater is a 32 Biocube and I'd love some frags you think would prosper with the stock Biocube lighting.  Most of the soft corals seem to do really well in it.  I also have a 130 freshwater but my severums eat the live plants so they get mostly unique rocks for decor 😃 

Looking forward to meeting everyone!

Hi all - looking forward to the meet-up this weekend.   

FYI - I am on the back side (hopefully) of a battle with dinoflagellates - all the dinos... that came on as a result of bottoming out Nitrates and Phosphates during my recent tank upgrade.  In my pursuit to ID them to know which they were and how best to control them, I picked up a microscope.  I will have it set up during the meeting.  If you have dinoflagellates, algae, cyano, or anything else you want to ID, feel free to bring samples.  Knowing your enemy is the first step to winning the war!   It is best to bring a decently sized sample in your tank water that is fresh so whatever it is stays alive and we can se the movement.
