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.
We are still looking for a few good NJRC members to help round out our staff for the show. If you have never worked a show or want a great peak behind the scenes, now is your chance. We are looking for volunteers for Friday, Satruday, and Sunday. Please PM me if you would like to help out the...
Doing well. We had a fuse blow on the naturereef and I was not testing so the nitrates and phosphates spiked up. However, we got it fixed rather quickly and everything is back on track and doing better. Zoas and shrooms did amazing during that time but SPS got really pissed. We are not...
