January Meeting 1/14/12 @ 6PM! - OFFICER ELECTIONS!

Beau is hosting the January Meeting this coming Saturday the 14th at 6PM.  It will be BYOB as well as a snack to share and raffle items are always welcome.  It has been requested that there be “NO SHOES” on the carpet due to it being a whitish color.

He doesn’t have a tank to view but we will have plenty to discuss in hopes that it will get the NEW YEAR off to a good start.  The annual membership fees are due, so now would be a good time to get them in to our Treasurer Stacey Hahn.   Fees are $20 per individual or $25 per family

Attendance was low at the election meeting in November and no votes were taken at December’s meeting so we have decided to take votes for anyone that didn’t get the opportunity in November and will be attending this meeting.  
We will add the votes to November’s ballots and the announcement will be made during the meeting so we can go forward.
NOMINATIONS:
President:  Jim & Nacho
V. President: Ed, Bo & Daniel Leigey
Treasurer: Stacey
Secretary: Carmen & Angie

Let’s hope the New Year brings new members, returning members and new ideas.  The club is always willing to take suggestions to get the most out of the hobby we all enjoy.

Please PM Nate C. by clicking here for directions if you are not a club member.

Hope to see you all there!

I just got two green chromis from a friend who inherited a saltwater tank and didn't know how to care for it.  These guys were pretty pale when they arrived in my tank.  They are beginning to get some color back, but I would like to help them along as best as I can.  What can I do to help them get their best coloring back?  I imagine time will help as the other fish in my tank are bright and healthy, but I'm still open to any advice.  Thanks.

Little update.  The larger of the two is getting great color, the smaller is still somewhat faded.  I'm thinking time will be the best help for them at the moment, but if there are any little tricks, I'd be happy to hear them.

Feed them good food, and plenty of it.  Don't dump all the food in at once, but put some in, let them eat it and then put more in.  Try to get them good nutrition, rinsed frozen food is best, New Life Spectrum pellet is OK too.

Thanks for the tips, I'll give it a try.  I'll try to get some pics on here in another week so you can see how they are doing.  Thanks again.

If you have any garlic extract, you can add a couple drops of that to the food as well, supposed to be good for them.
