Just wanted to drop a line about what a great meeting we had this last Saturday. For those of you who missed it, all I can say is, you missed it. Charlie Campisi gave a great talk about how to put together a tank stand. I wish I had heard it before I built the racks I now have, but, I learned a lot just in case I ever rebuild them.
Lots of good companionship, too. Ron (JustRon on the Forum) was there, and I think his hat grew a few more feathers since I saw it last. Frank also brought his special vintage orange daphnia, a bargain at any price. I sold my rusty old 29 gallon stand for the grand total of $2, but it's better than having to drive it to the dump.
I have to admit I was disappointed that I didn't win the raffle. I had my heart set on the mermaid tank decoration, but somebody else wanted it. I was kind of dejected, but I hung in there until the end of the raffle, when somebody auctioned off a really neat box of tank decorations. I had just bid on some Tropheus longstockingi, so I thought they'd appreciate some really good cover for the bare bottomed tank I was going to put them in, and it would be a nice change from the usual assortment of broken flowerpots and pvc pipe that I usually use. All I can say is that these are really cool decorations, and I even outbid our club president for them. It was a tough struggle, but Pat, better luck next time.
Thanks everybody for a really great time!
