Sorry to hear, boun.

For those attending the event...
Anyone want anything from me?

Berghia egg clutches?
DBTC Pink&golds
Generic zoa/paly rock?
Idaho grape?
Sour apple plating Monti

I have other stuff, but until our DBTC tracker is up and running, my other stuff are for members who have contributed in the past.

Pm me if you have been part of DBTC and want something you know I have and I can check if I can make it a DBTC.

Also, I need aiptasia to feed my berghias. If you have some, please bring.

Oh, anyone else need chaeto? Time to trim again also.

Just saw this. If not too late, I would like to attend and may be +1. Thanks.

All attendees: please arrive promptly at noon as our campus is not open to the public and we will need to let you into the gate. If you are late, you won't be able to get in. Please use the entrance at 3150 paradise drive, where all you will see is a large gate and sign ( but no buildings).

We will have Lunch, then a tour and then a presentation.

I have lots of aiptasia you are welcome to! And have corals I can frag for folks. Please don't bring corals for me, though.

See you tomorrow,

Jonathon.

Dang! Looks like I might be running late hope I make it.

 

[denzil]

I'm manning the gate until 12:15 PM. If you happen to get here after that time, please PM me and we will let you in.

Thanks to everyone putting this event together: Jonathan, Jim, Denzil, Eric.... The presentation is a great learning experience.

Big thanks to Jonathan and Eric for being great hosts and a very informative talk on clams. Thanks to everyone who made it out !

 

[zeroinverse]

Totally agreed. Great event! Enjoyed looking at SOOO many water containers and seeing such big skimmers.

Eric gave a great talk about clams. He is a "marine physiology" grad student and needs our help with his clam research. Anyone with clams, send a message to Crabby or hopefully Eric will get onto BAR soon.

Jonathan(on), thanks for hosting us. That was fun! I'm glad your kids were there to hang out with my kid. We're planning to send him to ShuRen this fall and eventually move to Berkeley.

Oh, and thanks for the aiptasia! If you get more, or can scrape/collect more, tell me. Or if there is enough, I'll drive out to help scrape your tanks.

I really envy all of you who make reefing hobby your daily work. If you guys ever need an robotics engineer who can write embedded & web software, look me up. Might just make a career change just so I can tell wife... "I just played with saltwater all day at work".

 

[zeroinverse]

Eric, come over and try to spawn my clam. I forgot what type it is. But i just measured it though and it is a bit over 2.5 inch.

Oh wait, I know it is not a T spumosa.

 

[Coral reefer]

It's an aiptasia collector

 

[denzil]

Here are some pictures that I took at RTC.

 

[FeliciaLynn]

Thanks Jon and Eric for showing us around! It was definitely an interesting tour and I had a lot of fun today! Here is a link to the photos I took today. I'm not nearly the photographer Denzil is, but since we split into two tour groups, I figured I'd play photographer for my tour group.

Glad everyone had fun and thanks for posting the pictures!

Afternoon y'all.

I as well want to add a huge thanks to Jonathan and Eric for the hospitality. Can't wait to hear the results of the research... I too will post photos once I've uploaded them.

Will do my best to make the next meeting.
