Flashy Fins

So sorry to hear, Sean, although I'm sure he lived a wonderful life with you & Darcy.

Huntero1975, I understand you want to trade everything for 3 specific pumps, so I moved your post to the trade section and edited it to remove the mention of selling. If you wish to sell, just list a price, either for the lot or piece by piece. You can add OBO for flexibility. It's nothing personal and is a rule that applies to everyone. Looks like a great deal for someone!

I’ll be there. See you all soon!

Congratulations to all!

The hogfish in the video seems to be attacking his own reflection, thinking it's another hogfish. Probably bored out of his mind in that small tank with nothing better to do. The complaints I've read about parrotfish in acrylic tanks are more to do with them scratching it up while trying to get every last bit of algae.

All this talk of glass versus acrylic... you can’t put a parrotfish in acrylic! And if you don’t think you need a parrotfish, what are you even doing in this hobby?!

I'm out in Oregon City, but I'll be in Vancouver on Tuesday and can meet up with you then. I'll send you a PM to work out details.

Relieved to see the overload of blue slushies I had did not result in a blue smile in these pics! Although, I might have been suffering brain freeze in this one. Huge thanks for documenting our shindigs.

@sroberts, the USB meter is now available. Where are you located?

[language filter]... that could fit a whole lot of flashy wrasses! The big gaudy ones, 12” rainbow colored monsters! And their parrotfish friends! Pretty sure the weight of it before any water was added would crash through my second-level apartment floor, though.

Congrats to all! Happy to be around for another year!

Never heard back from you, @wantanewtank, but I will be at the meeting tomorrow if you want to pick up the meter there.

Anyone else feel like they're in one of those Discover commercials with the "not you" lookalikes?

USB meter was handed off at the April meeting and is still being used. Handheld meter is currently available. @wantanewtank - where are you located?

Bumping this up! You have till April 30 to get the discounted rate for a vendor table at the event. Last year, we had a blast and made a lot of money for Tanks for Teachers. We're expecting another great turnout this year and hope you'll be part of it!

Whoever made that pan of brownies deserves their own special thanks, because mmmmmm! And special thanks to Scott for whipping up some bacon for this picky eater! I pretty much never fill my plate at potluck gatherings, but I did at this one. Thanks to all who brought something to share!

I’ll bring a baby maxi-mini for them.

This party is going to kick fish tail! Proper thanks to Jeff & Kim for organizing all this!

Sounds like some type of burgers are happening, yes? I'll throw in a vote for bacon, in that case, because that is what I like between my buns. (Realizing now that could be worded better, but where's the fun in that?!) Just a suggestion, and no hard feelings if we already have a full grocery list. I won't starve as long as there is bread (buns).

One fire shrimp for me!

Great job with the hitchhiker talk and the photo recap, Bert! Excelling at two major jobs there! We are lucky to have you! Special thanks to Holly for opening up her home, to all the club officers who pitched in to make the meeting a success, and to everyone who came out to socialize and support the club! We have such a fantastic group of people here! More exclamation points because I love them so!!!!!! What, you don't all have a bottle of turpentine in your fish med cabinet? Consult with Bert or Miles recommended first. Yep, all your fingers are still there, Andy! Technical assistance during the talk appreciated.

Added you! Both meters are available. Which one did you want to borrow, the handheld or USB?

Yikes. I hope they turn up.

@Nanoreefer32 & @Paratore - either of you ready to borrow a meter? I should be getting both of them back this weekend.
