Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Hoping you have an ATO :)
Where are you located?
If within 60-90 mins I can stop by somewhere mid-vacation to check things out for you.
If closer I could do a couple drop ins.
I do the same for a couple of other members. So far I have some jewelry, a TV...
Seriously though, happy to help if...
Went to bid on the Phantom Torch. BIds started at $25 and are up to $60 but there's a 'Reserve not met' flag up (as on other items).
Is that an oversight or do these have reserves?
Apologies, I have to change to no.
WTF is it with Saturday the 21st? There is more going on on that day than has been for the entire past year...
Kids swim competition in morning
Festival of the Sea in Point Pleasant
NJRC meet
Outing with Howell PBA
Offer to see King Crimson at RCMH
Fishing trip...
Why not alternate? Six meets a year held by members, six by shops that sponser the club.
We can reach out to sponsors telling them we have weekends in say Jan, Mar, May, Jul, Sept, Nov. Let them claim a date and set up sales and such for a store meet.
Remaining months are given to members to...
Nems will go where nems will go (ask the scores of us who have rainbows living behind the rockwork).
No need to move it, stress it, or disturb it in any way.
If it gets stung and is bothered, it'll find a new place.
Beautiful tank btw.
Had the same discussion with myself recently (but bigger).
Went with these, and I'm incredibly impressed...

I like a heavier sand like aragonite that helps keep ph balanced, is small enough for burrowers, big enough not to get blown around.
Makes the tank look natural. I've done barebottom and algae attaching to it as well as detritus blowing across it doesn't look too nice, plus theres a bit of...
I just finished making a donation to relief efforts post hurricaine and it got me thinking.
Carla and I lost everything in Sandy, and we were hotel nomads for the two years following. Still, we had food, water, and knew where our families were.
I cant image what those people in the Bahamas and...
Rainbow acan is kickin.
Why would you need help with the zoas? They're looking fine.
Yeah, thats a bad scenario though, if they bite other corals...
Best bet if that happens is to shoot them in the polyp.
I adopted an angelfish from Mark earlier today after he cleared his tank, but there was also a leftover CC starfish which had surfaced.
As Mark had no home for it and his tank was breaking down I figured I'd hold it and re-home (it was sort of a last minute surprise).
I have a very large serpent...
What it looks like:
A chocolate chip starfish.
How big it is:
Can sit in the palm of your hand, about 4-5" across.
What does it do:
I have trained it to do simple tax forms and dispose of the bodies of my enemies.
Where is it:
Brick
When can I pick it up:
Tonight, tomorrow, when you pick up...
