Only two more sleeps!

Whoo Hoo!

OK, here's the agenda:
Christy will be catching the 10:10am ferry at Comox. She will arrive here at about 11:30am where I will pick her up (and any other Islanders who can make it). (Whiteice669 is bringing his own wheels

) We will all meet at Striker's Bar & Grill for a get-acquainted drink or two

while we wait for RobynR and Reefjunkie who will arrive a little later from the Sunshine Coast. Then, when we're all here, it's off to Dave's to see his wonderful 300gal reef, and in-progress seahorse tank. From there to Marie's amazing reef tanks, where Doofus is eagerly awaiting our visit. (Feel free to bring him a Big Mac for his lunch). Then on to my 90gal corner reef and 225gal reef. Then we can visit our LFS to meet Bob the owner. (I'm trying to set up one more tank viewing with another Powell Riverite but haven't heard back yet)
After the tank tour it's time for some sight-seeing, food & drink

, interesting conversation, more drink

and finally some more drink

.

PS: PM me for my phone # if you don't have it already, for directions, or any questions you may have.

Dam wish I could make it. Have fun everyone. Christy, if you see anything cool in Maries tank that might look good over here on the Island just bust a hunk off and slip it in your purse.

Now you guys have me worried that you will be disappointed.

In the past I've been limited to what JL posts on their new and noteworthy page for my coral choices. I'm pretty sure everyone already has the corals I have in my tank (with the exception of the 2 new frags from oceanic) and I have cooties to boot...but sure your welcome to hack away

Marie, I could never be disappointed in your tank. The photos take my breath away, I can only expect it will be the same if not better in person!

Thought I would throw this out there... I am fragging a rainbow monti colony today and can bring a few pieces up to the reef meet. The piece has lost some color but with lots of light it comes back quickly. So...I'm gonna say for free or trade for a little something. Pieces will be freshly fragged and not mounted.

The colony I am fragging

And this is where it was broken off from
