That shot is about 10 gallons worth! I want more photo's so that I can pick my next frags out ... or are you going to only give us 10 gallons worth spread over 3 months???

LOL! I have to build the suspense since my tank is only 30 gals...I will post the next 1/3rd pic tonight. To be continued...

PS - frodo...the one pic looks like your dawg is crappin out a taco bell dog.

SaraB · 09-26-2007, 05:52 PM

Cool Justin, I look forward to seeing 20 out of 30 gallons ... the suspense continues!

On a side note, I tried netting that Foxface and the second it saw the net, it hid. I might need you to come over with the barbless hook next week!

justin · 09-26-2007, 11:10 PM

No prob, Sara. Just let me know. Here is a wierd story... I hooked my cardinals out on Friday and put them into a nano. They both ate right away. Later that night I noticed the female quivering next to the male. I get back from LA on Tuesday and the male is carrying eggs!

It is a valid method when all else fails.

SaraB · 09-27-2007, 02:25 AM

Hope the trip to LA went well! If you are free, I would appreciate the hooking help as I don't think the net is an option! That's pretty cool on the cardinals carrying eggs too! That's three of us now!

fishgeeksrus · 09-28-2007, 08:23 AM

make that two....

Ours hatched, we were able to catch 3 of the "little guys" (inside joke) put them into a specimin container with holes drilled into it for circulation, and they found their way out through the holes after 2 days. I think they became lunch for our radiant wrasse.

On a good note though there's another baby on the way....

SaraB · 10-01-2007, 03:15 PM

WOW, the colors have gotten even more stunning in your tank since the last time I saw it in person ... smarty parts!

Congrats to Dennis & Andrea on the other announcement above!!!!

justin · 10-01-2007, 03:39 PM

...and yes, congrats you two! I didn't want to say anything or be the first to make the connection on here public

SaraB · 10-01-2007, 03:47 PM

Thanks. Probably not. No frag swapping for me...just me and my tank, nothing comes in and nothing goes out.

fishgeeksrus · 10-02-2007, 10:19 PM

you can still come and have a beverage or two...

justin · 10-02-2007, 10:44 PM

...or four. Im in.

Samper · 10-04-2007, 05:33 PM

You guys have some nice systems. I'll be in Chicago in December and it'd be cool to meet some of you.

CubsFan · 10-04-2007, 06:31 PM

Wheres the frag swap on the 14th gonna be at?

SaraB · 10-05-2007, 07:12 PM

Here's the details:

OK, we have secured a location!!!

8201 Skokie Blvd
Skokie IL, 60077
At the north east corner of Cleveland St and Skokie Blvd.
(Old car dealership)
PARKING will be in the south dealership parking lot (formerly Prestige pre-owned dealership)

10:00am - 4:00pm October 14th

We will be able to accomidate approx. 20-22 6foot tables.

Things to be aware of....

We DO NOT have tables on site. If you need one you must bring one.
Bring along extension cords. Power is limited, but we will be able to make things work with extension cords / Power strips.

This is a Privately owned building. We have the good fortune of being able to use it for next to nothing! We are asking for $5.00 per table (electricity) so we can make it a FREE ENTRY for those coming to buy/trade. There will be NO SEADONKEY at this location. That doesn't mean we're having BEERFEST, but it will be allowed. The owner of the property has given me (Dennis) permission to use the building and IS NOT RESPONSIBLE for the actions of those that attend. (Can't sue him/us if you leave and get a DUI or accident) You attend and enjoy at your own risk. That also means that we have to clean up afterwards. Everyone can lend a hand.

SELLERS: Please contact Andrea or Dennis via this thread or PM to confirm attendance.

Hope to see you all then.

Dennis and Andrea

How long will you be in?
Where are you staying?

I'm sure we could arrange something.
