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!

Well I installed the phosban reactor that I got from Zul (thanks again Zul) and filled it with the Rowa Phos I ordered through Les (thanks Les) and I can tell a difference in the water.  But I don't know if the coral growth is a result of this?  My SPS have just started growing like crazy.  I have new branches every where.  I love it but it has me confused.  Nothing else in my tank changed and the cualerpa started to deteriorate so I took it out.  Anyone have any idea why the growth spurt?

you cleaned up the water by removing phosphates and silica.  The calurpa likes phosphate to grow (food) and when it was removed it started to die.  I'm glad you were able to notice an improvement Smiley

I thought the Cualerpa was for nitrates and stuff like that not phosphates!  That's explains a lot.  Thanks Rick.
