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.  

Club members can click here to go to the club member only forum to get directions.

Hope to see you all there!

I would like to express my thanks to Rick, Philip, Zul, Ronnie and Donna for their help today in starting up my new tank. Rick with his aquascaping plans and ideas made a really awesome rock scape for my new 400 gallon tank. This is what being a part of this club is all about, helping others. My words alone cannot express how much I appreciate this level of commitment to other club members

I hope that Zul can post the pictures he took today of the process. We started hauling the cured rock in around 11 AM and started filling the tank about 3:30. I turned the pumps on and started the silt storm around 5 or so. Now I wait while the filters clean the water, maybe in a few days or so I'll be able to see through it again.

Ed,
The tile work you see is only 40-50 square feet. The stuff I need help on is 400 square feet. If you are willing to help then when I get ready I'll call.

Zul,
These pics are awesome. The one I like best is with you standing up in the tank. The socks realy stand out against the black acrylic. Cheesy
