pdxmonkeyboy Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 so, the february meeting is at my place... I am going to try and find all the parts to my kegerator fired up. We started a frag trade thread.. but is there anything anybody wants to hear or are interested in? Anything the less experienced wants to know about?

Gil&Fin Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Ideas: Aquascaping Lighting 101 (seriously dumb it down for me) Poisonous corals that shoot sh** in your eye (oh yeah, we just did that) Selling/shipping frags (tips on types of corals that ship well, bagging, shipping materials) How to tell if your tank is about to fail and what to do about it (glass/acrylic, seams, braces, etc) Planning for the worst (aka backup power sources) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willapa Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I like the aquascaping idea. Another idea is: Top 5 coral pests and best practices when setting up and maintaining a simple coral QT tank.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdxmonkeyboy Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 I could definately talk about my coral QT. the aquascaping talk would need a lot of pictures to be effective. Plus, it's so much a personal decision. some people love the fruit stand look. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badxgillen Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Dang!!! I was thinking about voting Aquascaping. I am always looking for new ideas that are animal and equipment conscientious when setting up new tanks. I have got the Fruit Stand, The Wall, The Island, and even The Volcano. But lately I hear that less is more so maybe I can pick up some pointers from the members and yourself at this meet since as you mentioned this could be a difficult subject to cover without pictures. If you are down to run through your coral QT procedures that would be a nice refresher to many of us. I honestly think all the subjects presented will make for some good conversation matter.

pdxmonkeyboy Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 yeah ok, I can cover some of the basics of aquascaping. It seems that nobody remembers the rule of 3rds. plus, my tanks aquascaping doesnt really follow the rule of 3rds. I needed more real estate for corals!! I will get some photos and stuff togther, I can play them on the TV. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bicyclebill Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I could definately talk about my coral QT. Maybe both the positive and the negative based on what you just went through on your frag tank? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vance164 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I also vote aquascaping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeardUp Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I like the aquascaping, and signs of a tank crash or hardware failure. I also like the lighting topic, I keep adjusting the height and intensity but never really know what I am doing till I see issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
