Mid-Columbia Saltwater Aquarium Club

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!

He is the only fish in my tank that is showing just a touch of ick.  I would treat him in the bag or a small tank with some Kent RXP or if quarantined, do a copper type of med treatment.

I will probably be getting off work early today and if you want to pick him up after work that would be good.  He is in the refugium jail for now.

He is a bully that picks on the other fish.  I can't add new tangs with him in there and I want to add a pair of Moorish Idols.  Now I can do it without having to worry about him killing them.

An Achilllies Tang.  It used to be in Jeff's tank, he brought it back to Amazon Bay because it was too mean, so I bought it thinking that in my 240 there would be enough room that he would not be so aggressive.  Boy was I wrong!!  I can attribute the death of a Sailfin Tang and a Powder Blue Tang to this SOB  :evil:

Now Les wants a shot with him.  He thinks Hercules will kick the Achillies butt.  I say we start a couple of wagers.  Maybe even have Friday Night at the Fights over at Les's place one of these times.

Hey Angel...seems that Hercules didn't have to lift a fin...from Les's post a few days ago:  

Quote from: "Les"
Well, I am saddened to note that the Achilles Tang I got from Rick has left this world. When I finally got him he was in the advanced stages of ich. With the peeling lips and general poor health I guess the copper medication was what did him in.
On another better note, the Clown Tang I purchased that same evening from Amazon Bay is doing fine in the little quarantine tank.


Now, don't ya just feel awful rootin' against the little guy?   :cry:

Seriously, that was a pretty fish...too bad he didn't make it.  Angel, you should see the new Clown Tang that Les got though - gorgeous...go look at his pic on the thread "death from ich" .   Les, I think you should call him Bozo.  (I may be the only old geezer to rembmer old Bozo!)...maybe Carrot Top?
