April meeting 4/14 @ 7PM - Grant's house

Laura and Jim will be hosting the May meeting this Saturday the 12th and it will be the usual of food, drinks, raffle and fun.
 
Doors will be open at 6:00 pm for social talk and the meeting will start at 7:00.  Parking gets a little tight and the city says you can't park on 4th but there is a parking lot a block away.   Meeting is usually held in the backyard so feel free to bring your favorite lawn chair, weather permitting of course.

If you need address/directions, contact a club member.

Best if you park at Mini Mall (where the spaghetti establishment use to be)
 
You will get to see his new frag tank set up in the making.
 
Hope to see you there!

I finally have my 90 up and running. I still need to get the sump hooked up and get rid of the hang-on filter, and install the lighting properly, but it is now at least occupied. I will probably have this project wrapped up by the first of the year, and them will move on to water top off system and replacing the CF lighting side with MH. Thanks to all who helped with advise and other things to make my setup a reality. MCSAC is the best!

I've got a good set-up to use if you are going to use a reservoir for top-off.  If you are intersted, let me know and I can get you the shopping list and send you directions on how to hook it up.  It lets you have 2 floats that activate a latching relay to let the reservoir be emptied until the low float drops before starting to fill, then filling until the upper switch turns your RO/DI back off.  Minimizes the amount of contaminates that get past your RO membrane by letting it run for long lenghts of time instead of on/off al the time when a single float is activated.  Have to give credit to Les for passing this on to me when we were setting up our system.

Grants will be the 9th, not the 11th.  I'll try to get you a parts list by then.  I'm in the process of tearing down the frag tank and getting the 29 gallon back up and going right now though, so pretty busy.  Trying to solve the mystery of the 1-day-to-death for corals in the frag system...fish do fine, but corals die overnight.  Sad  Going to tear it apart to try to figure out why.

Ok thanks see you then. Good luck with that mystery. I am certainly glad that I dont have to deal with that one. Sounds baffling.
