I'll be speaking to the SFAS at 8pm on stony coral basics.
I think it's open to the public.

Planning on being there. Is it open to the public? Any fees?

Thanks to everyone who showed up for this presentation. Apparently I blathered on for over an hour! Who would have guessed?
I've been invited back to give another talk later this year. Did you know SFAS has been around since 1923?
That makes them (slightly) older than me!

I'm afraid I spilled our dirty little secret though. I told them there is no moral high ground in the reefing hobby. Then I beat them about the head w/ galaxy rasboras!! I had some definite personal opinion moments tonight!

I know, I completely spaced out on the Q&A! I'm thinking of going over to the SFAS forum thingy and offering up a few days of Q&A. It's only right, what with the rasbora difficulty and all.

Oh man I gotta get some, you think they'd do O.K. in an 8g Eclipse? It came with some Bio-Zyme.

They really look pretty amazing in person. Just like a mini German brown trout.
