Default Calgary, I want to do a tank tour!

I want to do a tank tour of everyone's sweet systems here in Calgary. I was thinking maybe a weekend in mid-September.

Whatcha all think?

I was thinking maybe start somewhere at say 9am, and go until around 3pm. Ending maybe with a BBQ type deal somewhere.

We can start south and work our way north, or vice versa. I figure we need probably 5-6 tanks to visit. The number of tanks would depend on how long we want to spend at each tank. We could even start at a store initially as a central gathering point.

I was hoping to go, but passed up our tickets for RollerCon instead. Thats why I don't want to do it at the beginning. I may still go to MACNA depending on how things turn out for our house hunt in the next month.

I would be ok displaying my tank as part of the tour...I also consider myself a newb as I previously had FOWLR but have ventured into the reef world...I also have some questions as where to place certain items so any input would be greatly appreciated...Its been 4.5 months since the LR went in and I've been fortunate enough to have very little nuisance algae and the sps seems to be thriving...Lights are 100% lit after 1pm...Need more insight on my tank though...
