Sorry I was only there for a short time.......

big thanks to gomer and john for running things while the rest of us were keeping silent in the beginning. eventually people started talking though, and i think it's because of mike's entrance lol.

dang i got a lot of free stuff... i will definitely be giving back to you guys in the future

ps did anyone grab the amanos or are they in the show tank?

erijnal, I took the amanos. Thanks a bunch!

Thanks everyone for demo and all the free or cheap stuff. I'd say it was a smashing success.

Will someone be starting a thread to photo document the progress of the demo tank?

Thanks for all of the plants and stuff that was a lot of fun. I must admit it was a little awkward in the beggining but I think after a while it got to be pretty fun. I hope the tank doesnt get struck with any serious algae problems. I hope the tank ends up looking nice.

Gomer, John P, and IUnknown good job with the planting. I am glad you guys stepped up and did all the work I think it will look very nice.

Good times. It was very nice meeting everyone, and thank you for the great demo and cool plants. Look forward to the next meet

Nice seeing all of you guys there! Thanks to everyone that helped on the tank. I'll be looking forward to the next meeting.

It was great meeting most of you for the first time! I had obviously already met a few people, so I think that's what made me a little more comfortable

I'm going to be setting up some server space for Carl who has volunteered to put something together. I'll probably throw a thread together as well...since one of the things I did was take pictures of people

As long as Brian keeps on top of things, the algae shouldn't be a major issue. I was talking to him and he said he wasn't sure if he would be using Seachem or ADA products to maintain the tank. I made sure he understood if he used Seachem that he'd have to dose higher than recommended. IIRC, Tony also made sure he understood that the ADA substrates that mostly made it there from ADG would probably carry the tank for the first couple of weeks of water changes.


And as for no one really talking until I got there...I've been known to be a closet catalyst. Maybe it was all of the KNO3 I was carrying in!

Oh yeah...forgot to add:
Lauren, you were missed! I know I had TetraFreak's money for the regulator, and others were hoping for wood and rocks (IIRC).

Let us know everything is OK.

Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun there too bad i missed it. I was sick yesterday and was unable to make it for the meeting. I may have a respiratory tract infection.

Kurtis sorry I was unable to give you a ride.
