LOL last time i was their they had a lot of tables in the meeting room, it's been awhile and now i moved so i cant walk across the street and check but i think we will be set for you to unload LOL.

 

[zer0zax]

I hope we have big tables and that a few people have big aquariums...8-[

 

[Robert Hudson]

I don't know if they would want us putting that on their tables. I'm bringing one folding table. I don't know if you really want to bring that much wood. There may not be that many people who would want it! Bring it in a box.

 

[zer0zax]

I will bring it in a box :ninja:! As long as someone takes a piece, I'm happy.

 

[Zenzi]

What is the date? Are newbies welcome? I don't have any plants to share yet.

Zerozax, the driftwood looks nice!

I'm starting a 75 soon (still building the stand right now) but I would like to take this opportunity RIGHT NOW to call DIBS on the piece of wood in the upper left of the photo, just below the bottle!

I don't have a lot to trade (probably some basic plant trimmings, Ludwiga repens, Wisteria, One BIG AMAZON SWORD, rotala, chain sword) just let me know what you want!!!

 

[zer0zax]

Zenzi: All you are required to bring is yourself! Robert set up this swap so we can meet local plant people and relax! The only plants I'm bringing are some small ugly ones that no one will want, but I am really looking forward to meeting real-live plant people! The only plant people I know right now are digital. The date/location is posted earlier in this thread.

Logan's Daddy: It's yours! Don't worry about trading anything, I am running out of room so I really do have to get rid of this driftwood. Whatever anyone doesn't want will be tossed in the woods, that way I can get more driftwood when I go "fishing"

I don't have anything to bring either as a newbie... and not much room for more plants unless I set up a new tank. However, if anyone had a single small Nymphaea micantha ray: , I have room for that one saved... I really just want to meet some people and have a slice or two of pizza :hungry: and a beer :drinkers: .

I guess we could do it the third saturday in October. I don't want to make it to close to the November holidays. Jeremy, can you change the reservation at Round table?

So, October 18th at Round table pizza, West Linn 1 oclock. I will put it up on my WEB site, It will be put up on the GPAS WEB site, and I will announce it on my email subscription list. I think I just might be able to arrange to have a CO2 regulator raffled off too!

For those who missed the date/time and don't want to search for it.

I've started stockpiling trimmings in a spare tank so I'll have something to bring. Mostly Ludwigia arcuata and repens, Bacopa australis, and Myriophyllum mattogrossense right now. I'll wait til we're closer to the swap to thin out my ferns and Anubias petite. I'm also eying a large clump of Crypt spiralis as something to take, it's going to be a huge pain (and mess) to get it out of the tank though.

That is some nice driftwood zer0zax. I don't really need any but some of those pieces are very tempting. I really like the look of the one in the very back to the right of the bottle. I'd have to totally redo a tank in order to fit it in though.

 

[Robert Hudson]

Newbies are welcome but you have to buy everyone pizza! artyman:

An announcement is being posted on the Seattle aquarium society WEB site. It will be interesting to see if any die hard hobbyists are willing to make the 4 or 5 hour drive from Seattle!

 

[Pooky125]

I knew I shouldn't have opened this thread. I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. I'd like to come, but not sure I'll make it.

 

[cs_gardener]

Do try to come, the more the merrier!

This is going to be fun, since zer0zax has the driftwood covered I'll leave mine home, I have a bunch of small stumps I drug home. I will be bringing a bunch of ammania bonsai, Dwarf hairgrass, a little Downoi, hygrophilia sp. low grow, limnophila aromatica, I have a ton of java fern if anybody is interested. and what ever else I can dig up. Sounds like we will have a good selection to pick from.

I also will throw in a folding table in case we need it.

[zer0zax]

Bpimm: you could at least bring me MY stumps that I have been looking for! :fencing:
Well, on second thought I'm to good for your stumps anyway...[smilie=l: I am planning a paludarium that will have no driftwood, only bonsai trees, so only living driftwood for me

 

[Robert Hudson]

Its getting close! Next saturday! Here is a newsflash, Wetspot told me they are bringing Cal aqua C02 glassware to the trading table!

How about a roll call? whos coming?

 

[Minsc]

I will be bringing small amounts of Tonina fluviatilis, Polygonum sp. 'ruby', Rotala wallichii and nanjenshan, Ludwigia ovalis, xmas moss, something that may or may not be crassula helmsii, and yes, I should have a couple erio minis and maybe a plug of UG.

If I could make a request: if anyone has a few cherry shrimp they can spare, I would really appreciate it.

 

[Robert Hudson]

oooow, ahhhhh :surprised

 

[zer0zax]

I'm starting to get more fidgety with anticipation as the days dwindle down! Robert's hooking me up by bringing my plant order so I can save on shipping, plus I can't wait to take some notes on how you guys deal with our soft water. Harden the water a little, or just dechlor and throw it in? I'm bringing a notepad and pen, and will be asking tons of questions...if you see me coming, RUN!!

 

[bpimm]

I'll be there, don't know for sure yet what I'm bringing. Probably Dwarf Hairgrass, Anubias nana, Downoi, Hygrophilia low grow, Ammania Bonsai, Java Fern, Marsalia minutia, Maybe some Limnophila Aromatica, Rotala wallichii and anything else I come across.
