It is a little early, but we have scheduled the next meeting for February, at Kim's house. No date yet, but that will follow along with more details. I just wanted to throw this out there and maybe we can dig up a few details in the following weeks.
February Meeting
- Thread starter CarlaW
- Start date
Help Support Reef Aquarium & Tank Building Forum:
So, how about getting a date figured out so everyone can plan for it? In February, the weekend of the 12-13th definitely won't work for me, so I'm thinking Saturday the 19th, unless that doesn't work for the majority out there. What does everyone think?
That date works for me Kim. You wanna do it around the same time I started mine, or a little later. I remember the food last year was outstanding, can you do a repeat. 
Sounds good so far. Sure, you can come over at 1:00 if you want to . . . and so can anyone else who wants to. Thank you. Yes, I've got some ideas about what kind of meal I will put together this time for you guys. Probably not BBQ chicken again though - Mark and I had to take it apart last summer and pressure wash all of the crud out of it.
BBQ chicken does absolutely nothing for the inside of a bbq machine.........................................lol
Well, since no one else has voted so far, I think we should at least wait until we get a few more looks before we make it definite.
Hey, do you need any maintenance done on your tank???

Not really - it's pretty easy to maintain. Unless you have something magic that will scrape the last remaining bits of hair algae left still clinging to life on my rocks. That dang stuff. I'm sick of siphoning it, although it is going away.
I am sick of hair algae too, maybe it is just a cycle the tank is going thru?? I have had mine for about 5-6 months now. I get in there weekly and try to get a little out each time.
Yeah, I noticed you've got that stuff sticking to your clams even. I'm sure that losing the flow from the seaswirls for awhile helped it flourish. I just got busy, then lazy and pushed the maintenance envelope too far and my phosphates built up.
I think that I probably did the same thing as you as far as being a little lax on the maintenance side. But you know what, it hasn't gotten that really out of control, and I think over time it will go away just as it showed up. I have been real good on the maintenance here the last couple of months, at least I think I have.

19th works for me too. I will bring some frags. Maybe I could float them in your tank? What do you think?

I can't come til later in the afternoon though. I have to work Saturday morning.
How late in the afternoon, I was thinking we could start around 2-3 PM.

I'm sure I can make it by 3.
Well, now that we have established a date, (2-19-11), and an approximate time, (2-3 PM), I guess it would really help if we all knew where we are going. If Kim could chime in here with her address, it would help greatly. As soon as Kim gets her address up here, I will send an e-mail out with all the info. We should probably decide what we are gonna need to bring to help her out with whatever food she is gonna make, so Kim, the ball is in your court here, let us know what we need to bring.
I am sure we can figure something out to chat about, we have never failed yet to come up with something interesting.

For my address - if anyone wants it, shoot me a private message or an email and I will get it to you. Rob - I know you need directions, so check your private messages for one from me. Yes! The corals are in there and looking good. I need to mount up the orange one on the rocks - it's getting used to the lights on the bottom right now.
For food - I'm going to put together a mix of stuff for grazing: a batch of homemade chili, some ribs, hot wings, maybe some chicken enchiladas (if I feel energetic), and guacamole. If anyone wants to bring something - chips would be good, a veggie plate and maybe a dessert - or whatever else you think you want to bring.
Sorry for the late reply - we were out of town, and then I was busy putting stuff away. The cats were kind of miffed, but I think they're happy again - if you have them, you know how they are. Looking forward to the meeting!

I will give a shout to the veggie plate, no one else seems to want to reply
Kim, can you give me a call before Saturday??

Don't forget that we will be collecting club dues this weekend too, OK?
