Jason & Nancy, Thanks so much for opening up your home to the club!
We had a great (albeit long) meeting today. Lots of socializing, chatting, staring at tanks, drilling tanks, eating, drinking, raffles, etc at today. The tank drilling was interesting to experience. Great to see all the...

I'm running out to Champion Lighting tomorrow to pick up my Mag2. They have them for 34$. If you're building a reactor and don't already have a mag2 or similar pump and you'd like me to pick up one for you while I'm out there please let me know. I'm leaving first thing in the AM.

We've had the responses slow to a crawl for people who are going to be building reactors. I think we're ready to order parts for them. Any other last minute takers before we close out this buy?
Thanks!
I need to borrow one. I have to get this dragon wrasse out of my 65. That boy needs a tank with no sand. It actually took me about a week to realize that the cloudy water was actually a sand storm. Grrr.
The February meeting to be held in Bordentown at the home of Dan (DOswari) is slated to be a Calcium Reactor workshop where we'll be building our own reactors. The sooner we have a list of who's interested the sooner we can get good pricing for the compenents we need for the build.
