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!

Hey Les, a few months back you and I were talking about an overflow on the outside of the tank instead of the typical set up.

I found one example on Reef Central.  I thought I would share it with everyone too.

Tell me what you think?

I think that's a great idea. In fact, I have already built one that was a coast to coast version of that. Don't yet know if it works for the guy as he has yet to get the tank set up. The one thing I did different was to cut the finger area down 3/8 of an inch to give some leeway for water overflow in case of something blocking the finger areas.

Ummmm, that was sometime last summer I did that. I can try to get ahold of the guy and have him send me something but don't hold your breath.
