Feb. 4th, Sun., 5:30 PM

This is early advance notice, I know, but Sam has kindly offered to host the Feb. meeting at his place. He has a 75 gal. he wants to set up and this offers a nice opportunity for an aquascaping discussion.

Sam will post directions to his place shortly.

I just replied to another post with this information, but I thought I'd put it here.

My plan for the tank that we're aquascaping at the February meeting is a low-maintenance, Walstad-type, low light planted tank that I can enjoy with my 2 year old daughter (she really loves feeding my fish when I let her).

In that vein, I could use hardscaping materials and low light plants (crypts, ferns, etc...).

I can bring some crypts and small fern plantlets. Also some Tropica fern if you like. Also some smaller pieces of stone from Ohiopyle.

Sounds great!

Also, I forgot to mention this, but I'll supply the pizza. So bring your appetites.

Is the tank set up already? I just got a bunch of C. balansae, more than I can need and have room for. If possible I'd like to bring some to the meeting Sunday to "save" for the Feb. meeting.

No, it's not set up yet.

Sorry.

I still have that bag of soilmaster. I'll bring it to Sam's house.
