November Swap Meet - Kelowna and Area

[phillybean]

Sweet, sounds great Myka. Good to see your back in town

[Myka]

Thanks! I'm only back until the 30th, then back to the oil patch.

[phillybean]

Ah, that kinda sucks. I'm guessing you had to take all your tanks down

[Myka]

No, I have a great tank-sitter!! Although my planted tank looks like a swamp right now. I guess I need to put pressurized CO2 on it...

Ah good to hear. Are the Bangaii's still breeding? Do you have any frags to bring?

When I had my planted tank, I just used a Coke Bottle, Sugar, Yeast, Airline tubing and a air stone and my plants grew like mad!

Holy! I didn't expect so many people!! That's awesome! I hope everyone shows up.

I assume the Bangaii's are still breeding. but my tank sitter says both of them have been eating the whole time, so maybe they haven't had a batch since then. They had a batch about 6 weeks ago, so they're due any time now.

I have a single Candy Cane frag I can bring. I've been holding a frag for nazerine for a while too, so I'll bring that one as well. I don't have much right now. I purged before I left.

I have a similar DIY CO2 thingy set up right now, but it's a lot of work for my tank-sitter, and she's not very reliable at filling the bottle up often enough so the level of CO2 is fluctuating terribly in the tank, hence massive algae growth. I will either need to put pressurized CO2 on it to stabilize it, and take away some maintenance, or tear it down.

[Bugsy]

Anyone bringing soft corals?? Please list.

[Starry]

Which Site are you working at Myka?

Amy, I have xiena: 3 frags and a colony if interested.

[phillybean]

I'm not expecting the full 14 people to show up. Some people have quite a drive which might not make it possible.

That said, even if 10 people show up, it would be a great starting point for future frag swaps

[Okguy]

I'm a little confused phillybean.

Is the start time 3PM on the 22nd or the 29th?

Lets shoot for a 3PM start time.

It may be a little too late in the day for me. I'll try to post pictures of my frags tonight so if anyone is interested in something, I can maybe send it along with another person from Vernon.

Cheers,

Kevin
