Coral Raffle Info and Pic!

Here is a picture of the coral Reef Mystique is donating for the raffle during the next meeting. Wil thinks it would be better to raffle the entire colony so not to risk having any problems with it so we will decide later.

Reef Mystique has also donated 4 $25 gift certificates to be raffled. We are coming up with some other goodies as well.

This is a meeting to be sure not to miss!!

 

[jesshimom]

Come on everyone!! Get your evite updated and get to the meeting! it's going to be a one not to miss!!

 

[Ed Hahn]

Ok, I am drooling over the Colony. It looks like a loripes to me. It would look great in my tank (evil wicked grin).

 

[jesshimom]

I know you always have a big wad tucked away in that back section of your wallet...

 

[jesshimom]

Good news - I've come up with six additional 8 additional coral items to add to the raffle in addition to the large colony.

Two individual orange ricordia, really unique looking almost an orange and silver

Lunar Blue Acanthastrea Echinata,

Cloud Blue Acanthastrea Echinata,

green & Red montastrea

And three surprises, a donation from someone I was buying somehting from.

This is going to be super fun!!

I'm concerned with the number on the evite to be honest.

Where's everyone at? It takes a membership to have a club.

 

[Ed Hahn]

Boy, are you instigating again. lol...:razz:

 

[Ed Hahn]

Lets do it!

Ok, I need to do my job. I have a few people from Tri-Cities wanting to come up. They want to learn breeding technics of ornamental fish from a expert.
Lets Make sure Frank and Adelade have a rocking good time!
