I noticed that as well / think a couple of the Mods have lost interest! It may be time for a few new mods , to be added to the team ... people who have stuck with the site over time...

Very nice tank.. video was outstanding

Yep good story...

I have sent the seller a question about mixing the bulbs.... to see if they will configure it in this scheme... 2/3 1/6 1/6 as you stated Jason... If they will at no extra charge I am going to order two and experiment with it on a 24" cube that I started up for growing plants etc.

I have noticed some fish are discribed as Lamprologus and Neolamprologus / is there a difference? why Neo on the front of Lamprologus / I am sure it must have something to do with Latin....

That would be great Ray.... Let me know the cost

I am looking for some Val / jungle / americana or simular type / if you have some and are coming to the meeting let me know and I will purchase some from you... Also looking for a shell dweller of some type non agressive / small group and a few shells... Jerry

You can count on me for a group order if you go that way... Let me know the details and I could pay you and pick it up the next time I am in Calgary /

Thanks for posting that link... I need to replace my unit and this one is quite economical...

Does this tank come with everything a person needs to have a small sw setup that will last? What would a dummy who has never set up a salt water tank need to get it up and running?

2 or 3 days and it should be water logged

It was a good turn out / full house Good variety of fish... and lots of good socializing amongst friends who have been in the hobby forever!

Well... I was unable to go to the first two meetings of the year / Can I buy my membership before the auction from someone so I can put some lots in the upcoming auction? Need some bags as well.... Jerry

Was a date set for the Edmonton Auction?

I cant make the meeting as I will be out of town.

Thank You for setting the record strait.... you seem to know your shrimp... I read at least a couple of links that say differently, they state that blues and others are from cherries...

Yes Blue are from cherries and so are crystals from what I understand... Just mutations that have been line bred

Looky looky / I have a mutation amongst my green shrimp.... I believe it is a male that is very dark brown or black //// Hopefully some of the offspring will carry this gene... we will see

Great looking tank / I agree with your comments about clarity as I have noticed the same with my acrylic compared to the glass tanks I have
