That is a heck of a good deal on a nice piece.

I think Holly already alerted the admins @TheClark @Chief to the problem.

Thanks for organizing Kim! That was another fantastic, fun, informative meeting that took a lot of work to put together so kudos to you, Sirena, Scott, Bert, Holly and Rudy (and anyone else I forgot) for all your work on this one. Sorry I was late to the party 🙁but you all had it well in hand! The last couple of meetings have set a pretty high bar for the club but I'm sure the new set of officers and board members will do their best to keep things rolling. It is still hard to believe, however, that you won't be there to keep us on on task. Thanks again for everything you have done for the club as President - you have most definitely set the tone for engaged and committed leadership and left us in great position for success in the future. Hopefully you will come back with renewed energy and enthusiasm when life permits. Cheers! Sean

Have to give this one some love. 15

What the heck - I will be happy to share some of that love!

Second that sentiment - quite delicious 😋

Thank you for hosting Rudy! Always a pleasure to visit your operation, learn more about successful coral husbandry and pick out some treasures to bring home. Looking forward to next time!

Funny thing is... I was going to post that exact same question. Great minds and all...

I want all the wrasses!!! Some beautiful fish there...

Hi Parvo - I could stand to thine mine so will try and remember to bring a bag along.

I thought you were bringing your own since you have been banned for bad behavior 😎j/k

That is some serious dedication my man - I'm sure it will be delicious!

Looks like we are going to need some ice! Nice score @Sirena!

Thanks for the update Karen! That BTA will look great in there.

Haha! I think Cody has taken over as raffle champ but since he won’t make it someone else will have a chance! Oddly, my wins have been off single tickets but I wouldn’t recommend that as a strategy 😁

Haha - that wasn’t even my comment (but I was thinking it)

Don’t encourage him Dodge!

Good stuff! oh, and you weren’t getting margaritas regardless ☹️

Interesting - too bad the pic links are broken. Knew about Bobbit worms but hadn't heard that there were eunice varieties that built tubes. Yuck.

Just for that, no margaritas for you rave-man

Hey Roy @stylaster these are some great answers. I think the idea was to let the panel answer them live at the meeting though - just wanted to give you a heads up so you could save some typing 🙂. On the other hand, they are now captured for future reference!

Welcome! Should be a great meeting and an excellent chance to meet some fellow reef geeks and see some amazing coral. Paying for a membership in person shouldn’t be a problem and will get you a free raffle ticket as well! Hope to see you there.

I was thinking it might be time to send out the Bert signal! Fascinating behavior.

Yeah - I am a sucker for pretty much any wrasse but the leopards are one of my favs as well. Our blue star female from CnC was one of our first fish and survived what appeared to be a velvet outbreak that took out everything but it and a melanarus. Still with us (crosses fingers, knocks on wood).
