Reefin'

Sweet!

thanks Miles..appreciate it!

Maybe she wants some fish taco from taco bell....lol

Thats funny.....thanks

My cat sits and watches my oscellaris pair in their rose anemone frequently, which is about 3" from the glass.....they don't seem to mind..... he has never try to get at them

I wouldnt get one @ the store....they're usually pretty big!

Look for a skinny 3" one in the yard is my vote.....

Why did u promise something like that?

Mike,

Thanks for having us over....nice rockwork.... your ric tower is amazing!

Thanks breefcase for the aquariscope!

It was good see everyone... chris it was good meeting you and picking your brain for ric tips! thanks for the ric also! And thank to sponsers for their donations to the club!

Wow! Those are pretty colorful.....I've notice with both pics the tentacles don't look expanded....don't look happy....u better rescue them! :-)

Doran,

For the record:

I checked "A" and "D"

Public recognition is not important to me

Not a paid member

Hope u don't take this as an attack on your award program.

Just trying to get feel why more are not involved

Heard about the round tank before. That is what they keep them in at the Newport aquarium. I hate to buy something that is just going to die. Maybe I could just scrape an anemone off the rock and let it float around upside down for a minute or two??!!

Time for a trip to the coast!

Miles' date=' please take pictures before and after the injection... I would love to see how it's turn out. Thanks in advance.[/quote']

 

Ya that would be kewl!pics please

 

Miles, do u know where that thread is u mentioned about people cutting the zoas in half and grafting another half from another zoa?

Wow! Look like blastomussa.who's tank

It found the soup kitchen(free food)!

I dunno

(drinking)

any discussion is good discussion as long as it falls back on track

Cheers!

Ill drink to that!

Oh wait, I have been... lol

Maybe even non members can get membership via donation...just a thought(hidesbehindsofa)

Ca2or,

That's a great suggestion!.....I think it would be kewl if they allowd nonmembers to participate.

That might get more involved! Also liked the one bout the "whale" title change w/ certain amount of points....that might get r3 involved....lol

Ca2or ...By using the smiley u used leds me to believe ur were afraid to speak up......sorry if the thread got a little heatd ....I hope after krux and my discussion people still feel comfortable to give input and aren't influenced by it such that they worry about thinking outside the box and being look down upon for it....this doent even mean there gonna change the rules....just something for the powers-that-be to chew on!

I didn't mean to put that I was the first but that there were not many people talking about it on the forums at the time.

Good job on the "leet speak" terminology. I had to google it to figure out what that meant. I need to buy one of those [language filter] word of the day calendars.

Peace.

Ah! u think u have me figured out...but your incorrect. i have no intentions on selling stuff to benefit me...I'm not a member...can't participate...i am just lookin for ways to get more people involved.....no need to attack me on a personal level...i like your idea on making it an occasional event...i just think this is a big deciding factor for alot of people......i am just try to make this award program work...

FYI....and for the record i dont need ego boost.....i split a huge rose about a 1 1/2 -2 years ago... before anybody here was talkin about it and have raised oscellaris from eggs and have not mentioned a word on here....i dont need public recognition! I'm happy here playing mad reefer in the shadows...lol

While a small cut is better than nothing for the club, you are that that point buying a title instead of earning it through donation.

IMHO

Isn't it the same thing? By making donations u still are "buying it"

This is the same fine line that lobbist in washington dc walk

Generosity based acclaim needs to be restricted to gifting, not a side bonus to a live auction forum or it loses the spirit of the event and becomes a race for who can sell the most stuff out of their tank to the club.

imho

I thought this acclaim was based on skill ...not generosity ....to see who's the master reefer(who's got skills).........

.so ur saying were buying our acclaim by how much we donate.....again lobbiest in D.C. Think this way... don't they?....the more I donate(buy my way in) the cooler I am

a good suggestion about making it an occasional event ,maybe people would get more focused

Krux the reason I started this is to get more people involved.

As it stands....if u have this beautiful rose anemone and it splits or u split it....most are not gonna wanna part with it for nothin especially if the paid an arm and leg for it especially if its there first split....so then u get no paticipation..

= no money for club....

But for instance if it was 50/50(or whatever the ratio)....I believe u would get more people. To toss the idea around to part with their pride and joy .....

= something for the club!

= something for proud parent!

A $20 cut is better than none 4 the club....sometimes less is more

Just my 1 cent(can't afford 2)

Yes sir...u would

The current rules state:

If your entry sells for less than $50 than the club gets all proceeds....u would get anything above the first $50.....if u would like

Example:

zoas sell for $40....u get nothing

Bada$$ acan sell for $70...u get $20 if u want or donate it all....

Which is totally cool....I'm jusy try to see what it would take 4 more people to enter

Just like the title say.....

Here are some quick rules of the award:

Must be a member

Club gets all proceeds up to $50....u get any above that

Can't submit a nuisance like aiptasia

Just trying to figure out why people aren't entering more and to see what it would take for u to enter something...

Thanks

I would wait til right before/after lights go out to target feed....hth

Also how tall is ur tank and what bulbs do u have?.....

Do u have smaller food available like cyclopeze?

How many t-5 bulbs? 54w?

Wow jay that pic looks a lot better....

Bob were u not payin attention when Andy did his tutorial @ mr.S.classroom?

What are u wanting them 4? If u don't mind me asking...

Goodluck finding them locally

From what I understand they are really hard to culture....they are Carnivorous and will eat each other if not seperated(young from adults)which requires daily work and twice daily feedings of artemia nauplii...very labor intensive.

I've been lookin also...there really isn't a way out of paying shipping on these suckas

Goodluck
