June 26th Meeting at Monroereef's

Hello fellow reefers

I would first off, like to take this opportunity to thank all the devoted board members who keep this wonderful wealth of reef knowledge and support alive and kicking.

We have had fish tanks for about 5 years now. I started with a 10 gallon tank for my kids with an African Cichlid in Jan 2005 and since then we have come a long way. Almost immediately after starting the 10 gallon tank, I got the MTS (multi tank syndrome). In next 2 years I had about 500 gallon worth of freshwater tanks in my house . I would always go to Trop and admire their saltwater tanks and always wanted to take the plunge. Well, eventually in June last year I decided to start my first reef tank. It is ironic that on June 26th, the tank will be exactly 1 year old.

I love the hobby and am a devoted reefer. My reef tank is all I have left now as I was unable to maintain so many tanks. My tank is a 150 G with about 15 - 16 fishes and some corals. As some of you know already that I have been fighting red slime over the last month or so. But hey this is a package deal that comes with the reefing hobby

The Party/Meeting :-

It is with great pleasure that we invite all of you for our June 2010 meting at our house on Saturday, June 26th. Summer is finally here and we will be having a BBQ theme.

Looks like a low turn-out so far so I guess I'll have to donate this little Garf Purple Bonsai frag for the raffles.

If I can't make it I'll drop in off at mnat's
 
greg - what kind of lighting do you have and how close is that to the light? I have a "purple bonsai" but it doesn't go up like that - it's been encrusting side-ways...(of course that was under LEDs...maybe with T5s that will change).

The frags are approx 2" from the surface and the light is about 4" above the surface. I'm using a 12k 175w Reeflux.
